Python plug-in Frameworks like Eclipse RCP...

[Jim Hargrave]

Hum, maybe my question was too specific. What I would really like to 
know is what is the best way to implement a Python application with a 
pluggable architecture. In particular, I would like to use wxPython and 
have plug ins automatically register themselves with the GUI by adding 
themselves to the mean or adding a tab. Again this is much like Eclipse 
RCP - but forget that part :-)
