I'd like to help with this effort, but I might not be able to run fast
enough to keep up.  The only thing I can add right now is a reminder to be
careful about license issues.  I'm far from knowledgeable about this, but
as I understand it, the vpython license is more BSD like than GPL, and GPL
is more restrictive.  I may be wrong.  If we add stuff, we need to be
careful about accidentally making the whole thing GPL.  I think.
