[Edu-sig] The Fate of VPyton

[ajsiegel at optonline.net]

Did a litttle googling on the build issues...

enough to determine that projects using boost.python seem to be finding
that Scons makes the best alternative to a building mechanism of bjam, make or
some combination thereof.

For example:

http://mapnik.org/documentation/install/

Of course with the additional advantage that Scons is Python, so that 
whatever difficulties are posed, at least it is not learning a new syntax,
as someone like myself faces with make or bjam.  Willing to invest in
learning something about C++ and the Python C API.  Enough already.

So we are adding Scons build to the next, so far imaginary, generation of vpython.

"We" are?
