I've had a look at the pypp wiki a few times now, although I have not read
through it in great detail.   From looking at the wiki, I still don't
understand what it is that pypp does.

If you want to convince me that pypp is an easier better api to use, then
you're going to have to create some concrete examples of how this new API
saves me time.   Put it in the wiki and link to it.

I've been following this conversation and I still have no idea what it is
that you guys dislike so much about the py++ high level API.  I know that
you think it's not  efficient.  I know that you think pypp does a better
job.  but I've not yet seen any concrete examples to back it up.

In my opinion this issue is fundamental to this conversation.  Without this
sort of document, it's going to be hard to convince users to switch from one
to the other.  So users will stick with whichever they've started to use
first.  Without this document, Roman can't understand what it is that is
difficult about the py++api.
