This is probably a little into the future, but you may want take a
look at:

    http://www.zope.org/Wikis/zope-perl/FrontPage

If you follow the link in this page to the FAQ, it says that this
Python to Perl connection will be usable outside of Zope.  (But, if
I were you, I wouldn't bet my project on this until you've looked
at it pretty closely.)
