It's definitely out to require SWIG to build Python from a distribution, but we may require SWIG to hack on this particular module; we could ship the SWIG output. Not ideal, but if otherwise this module is the best candidate, maybe we could live with this. > The third > one is LGPL licensed, so it's out immediately. Really? I believe the LGPL is not "viral" as the GPL. Also, there may be the possibility to shame the author into changing the license. Can you review it a bit more technically? --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/)
