[pyorbit] Re: orbit question-Pyorbit

[Hassan Aurag]

 Ok,

I have looked at the Types module code, and it really looks lengthy 
for a four functions class.

Also, I doubt Fnorb is the answer now that I looked at some of it!

My general question is: does anyone have any idea about timeframe to 
be able get decent pyorbit release?

I am not calling this one indecent per se, but it's just too tough for 
me!

After all, all I really want is to be able to call GnomeApp class 
instance methods from another app, and NO I can't just import it!

Thanks again
