[capi-sig] ANN: PyBindGen 0.12 released

PyBindGen is a Python module that is geared to generating C/C++ code that binds a C/C++ library for Python. It does so without extensive use of either C++ templates or C pre-processor macros. It has modular handling of C/C++ types, and can be easily extended with Python plugins. The generated code is almost as clean as what a human programmer would write.

It can be downloaded from:

    http://code.google.com/p/pybindgen/
