[capi-sig] ANNOUNCE: PyBindGen 0.8

[Gustavo Carneiro]

The other day I released PyBindGen 0.8.  Main news is that it features a new
experimental header file scanner based on pygccxml (i.e., it's similar to
py++ in scope, if not in maturity, but does not use boost.pythonunderneath).

== What ==

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, and does not depend
on any library or header files besides Python itself.
