After working a bit with the existing codebase, I thought the best thing 
to do, was to clean it up a bit,
remove some C++ magic and be done with it - after all this is working 
code. JCW  is  a bit quiet  on
this topic and so my motivation to  heavily patch the python interface 
is near zero as this makes
integrating patches made in the metakit cvs repository a pain in the ass.

Anyway, I'd be interested to see your code and would, if time permits, 
also spent some time working
on it.

You know Joel's attitude on this topic?

BTW, python hosting offers free hosting for open source python projects:

They offer trac+subversion, but no mailing list.
