Omigod. I scare myself sometimes. This would be a great Summer of Code 
project. Port Cells (see sig) to Python. Trust me, this is Silver Bullet 
stuff. (Brooks was wrong on that.)

If a strong Pythonista wants to submit a proposal, er, move fast. I am 
mentoring through LispNYC: http://www.lispnyc.org/soc.clp

Gotta be all over Python metaclasses, and everything else pure Python. 
PyGtk would be a good idea for the demo, which will involve a GUI mini 
app. Just gotta be able to /read/ Common Lisp.
