[clpython-devel] plans (and porting)

[Ben]

hi --

fantastic work.  i actually had tried in my spare time to do something
like this, but using a hack where i used the AST python module to do
the parsing.  browsing the source, i see python functions -> lisp
functions, python (meta)classes -> CLOS (meta)classes, etc.  this is
great!

what are your plans?  have you tested it on any big python modules?

i wanted to know what your thoughts were on porting to another lisp.
i'd like to try to port to SBCL, which supports cltl2 environments,
and i think there are some free yacc-like packages out there (none of
which i've used, though.)  in general imagine an
implementation-specific compatibility layer will be needed, to
bootstrap most python modules (regexps, network, etc.)

great work!

Ben
