ORBit-Python seems to be alive and well. Last CVS checkin seems to be
about 7 weeks ago. If that doesn't seem like much activity, keep in mind
that ORBit-Python seemed to be fairly complete last time I played with it,
which was quite a while ago. You may want to poke the author.

ORBit-Python reads IDL directly, so there are no stub/skeleton modules
like you might get with something like Fnorb or ILU.
