Re: Python-visual in latest Ubuntu

James/Bruce,

If there is a serious attempt made at migrating Visual onto a pure
Python graphics back-end, I'd definitely be interested in joining that
project. The Python API for Visual is brilliant and the graphics are
fast, but the nature of the current implementation imposes several
limitations (notably, GTK+ event loop issues and some disconnects in
display and object interaction) that might be easier to address -- and
failing that, for users to monkey-patch their way around -- if it were
pure Python. This is, of course, in addition to the aforementioned.

On a related note, there seems to be much demand for a good native 3D
geometry library in pure Python [1]. If the above were to happen, it
might make sense to spin off a separate efficient geometry library at
the same time (something in which I'd be even more interested in
participating).
