I would love to see as much mature python support as possible in
the first release. It's more a matter of how much we can submit
and review before we branch. Go ahead, submit the patches and we
will try to review them.

We have yet to make a decision on when to branch&release, but I still
don't have enough elements to make a decision. To be announced later...
