Embedded Systems Python?

[Dennis Clark]

Hi all,

  I've looked through the threads about embedded Python that are a year
and a half old, and I thought that I'd ask this question now to see if
anything has changed.

  Has anyone, or is anyone working with Python in an embedded Linux 
environment?  Mine is NO where near as constrained as a cell phone since
I've got plenty of memory to work with, I'm just running a Linux 2.4 kernel
on an ARM9 platform.

  Are there success stories for Python on embedded Linux systems today?
The embedded Java JVM's seem to all be propriatary and have quite high
license fees (don't mention Kaffe, it seems pretty fragile to me.)

  I'm a bit of a newb when it comes to Python, is there anyone with experience
compiling it on Linux platforms that can offer me pointers to try this out
myself?

thanks,
DLC
