I don't agree with you on this point. I think that you and Allen did
such great job,
really. You designed completely new interface to pyplusplus. I think
that select api is
stable. It is not going to be changed, only in a few places we will
add a functionality
users missing/need. Don't you agree with me? Please, take a look on py_date=
_time
example. You will see the whole power of select interface :-).

I have to give some lecture about Python next week, after this I think we w=
ill
release "technology preview" version.

There is only one point that open - how to treat overloaded function.
( By the way,
I hope I will implement tomorrow solution that will satisfy you ).

You are adding great functionality ( =3D=3D logging ) to filters/matchers.
Why not to
add it to the main source code?

I think that you have great ideas and you can implement them directly on
main source code. There are some ideas, that we don't agree or I need some =
time
to understand you. Those ideas should be implemented on experimental branch=
.

Although your implementation is so different from my.
I fill a little bit uncomfortable with this.

Can you try module_builder_t class on your project? I think you will
like the result.
decl_wrappers are still missing some functionality ( cdef ), but I
don't think this will
be a problem.

What do you think?

P.S.1. Until end of the next week I will be busy, very busy. I will
try to response as
quick as I can.

P.S.2 Can you start writing some introduction/tutorial for high level API?

Thanks
