[Cython] Robin

[Dag Sverre Seljebotn]

Just saw this:

http://robin.python-hosting.com/

Seems like a good tool taking it on face value, but I didn't try it or 
look at the source (there is a numpy directory in the source tree 
though...). Perhaps there is something we can lift from it...

I saw it on the Python gsoc list when somebody was looking for mentors 
for it, full email:

Hello all,

I am an M.Sc. student at Tel-Aviv University, Israel, and an open
source developer of the project "Robin" (see
http://corwin.amber.googlepages.com/, http://robin.python-hosting.com
for a taste) which is somewhat of a SWIG alternative for automatically
creating Python bindings for C++ libraries. It provides several
features missing from existing tools, and is also cleaner,
maintainable, and extendable. I would like to push Robin forward as
part of Google's "Summer of Code", which means:

1. Create a good reference manual and tutorial (with demos)
2. Compile packages for popular OS distros
3. Stabilize Robin such that it would be capable of seamlessly
generate bindings for some well-known open-source C++ libraries such as
     a. webkit (http://webkit.org)
     b. libtorrent (http://libtorrent.rakshasa.no/)

And if anyone has any other libraries to "challange" Robin I would be
happy to use them as test cases and refine Robin that way.

I am still looking for a mentor from PSF.

thank you,
-- Shachar
