Re: [xsl] Saxon/C and Python?

Our priority in Saxonica is to get Saxon/C working well in the PHP environment, 
and thanks to the help of users who understand the PHP world a lot better than 
we do, we're making good progress on that. Meanwhile we certainly know there 
are opportunities for Python (and beyond) as well, and if anyone wants to 
pioneer getting things working for Python we'll be happy to provide what 
support we can, starting from a base of almost zero knowledge.

I recently became aware of Saxon/C, and as a frequent CPython user (as well 
as a frequent Saxon user), I'm naturally wondering about the feasability of 
generating some Python bindings for Saxon/C. I know there are some tools that 
might help with the problem -- SWIG for example -- but I don't know much 
beyond that.

I'm interested to find out if anyone here has a sense for how difficult it 
would be to get some Saxon/C Python bindings together, and also whether 
anyone is interested in collaborating on such a project. I'd have to guess 
these bindings would be useful to a not inconsiderable number of people.
