Two Pythons talking to each other?

[G. David Kuhlman]

I'm not a CORBA fan myself, but CORBA seems appropriate for your
problem.  Take a look at:

    Fnorb -- http://www.dstc.edu.au/Products/Fnorb/

and 

    ILU -- ftp://ftp.parc.xerox.com/pub/ilu/ilu.html (your Web
        browser can read this page)

both of which support Python.
