Not sure what you mean by this. Boost.Python is designed to be
non-intrusive on your design, so your wrapping code should not usually
require you to change anything about the code you're wrapping.

Boost.Python v2 is mixed into the main trunk of CVS (==HEAD) alongside v1,
though as I mentioned elsewhere you'll need the mpl-development branch of
boost/mpl.

I don't mind; I'll do my best to answer. I hope anyone else who's watching
will also feel free to pipe up with answers, though ;-)
