Anyway, i think we can start from 'both sides'. Manually rewriting stuff in python and work on a C-to-Python translator.
Absolutely, everybody should work on the ends she sees fit. To get something quickly, we cannot rely on C2P right now. To get everything translated, we cannot wait for the manpower to do it by hand. Furthermore, for certain modules it makes very much sense to write them by hand, *and* we probably need some as a template, reference implementations for targetting the C2P processor. Plenty to do, trying all paths in parallel will move the project forward. It also cannot all be planned in advance, I'm thinking more of evolution and Extreme Programming style than of classical design. will-be-extreme-programming-fun -y y'rs chris -- Christian Tismer :^) <mailto:tismer@tismer.com> Mission Impossible 5oftware : Have a break!
