| Does anyone know of an Alice port in Python? Or an implementation of AIML in
| Python? Failing that, does anyone want to write one (and have the time and

Are these libraries or applications?  Regardless, if you use the Java
implementation of Python (http://jython.sourceforge.net) you get
automatic use of any java class from python code.  No glue necessary
(it is all part of the interpreter).
