I might be wrong, but I believe you said once that one of the design 
decisions about Boost.Build was that it shouldn't depend on other 
software; that's the reason (I believe) SCons couldn't be considered as 
a replacement, since it depends on Python. Has this decision changed?

Very nice to hear about the Python port, btw. :)
