Cool. As XML is sometimes limited for what we're trying to achieve (that
is hypertext view of the outer world for http://www.logilab.org/narval/),
we've been thinking about implementing groves and HyTime-related things by
ourselves, but haven't got the needed bandwith yet.

Is that available as (pythonic) free software?

Nice too. I suppose a lot of people could find uses for it if you were to
contribute it back.

What makes you think so? ;-)
