Hey, now that's an idea! pyKoha! Any takers?
Heh. I'm surprised that nobody (that I'm aware of) has started a Python-based ILS yet.

I've been telling people that python is perl with a sane syntax (ducks for cover ;-). A quick google for "python call perl" indicates that it should work to migrate perl code to python incrementally, calling the existing perl functions and libraries until (if) the function/library gets migrated to python. <http://www.google.com/search?q=python+call+perl&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a> A quick scan makes these look like good starting points: <http://search.cpan.org/~gaas/pyperl-1.0/perlmodule.pod> <http://wiki.python.org/moin/PyPerl> I would love to tackle this to help my knowledge of koha, perl, and because I like python better than perl, but I'm overcommited on volunteer projects already. :-( Best regards, gvb
