pythonCOM with Flash

[Doug]

I'm  also very interested in flash/python. in paticular porting amfphp to
python. i'm pretty busy recently with work but would like to get in touch
with others who feel they might be interested in porting amfphp to python.
if you reply to this i'll email you privately if you want, my email in this
post is no-valid.

Cheers,
Doug
