Hello,

Jean-Luc Giraud started a PC/SC API for Python some time ago [1] but
the development has stalled.

I decided (with Jean-Luc' help) to host the project on alioth [2] and
improve it:
- use epydoc to generate a HTML documentation
- create a higher level API in Python (instead of C) to ease use and
extension of the API

Possible improvements:
- provide a ISO 7816-4 API to use select_file() instead of hex notation "00A4"
- provide a VerifyPin() instead of direct call to SCardControl()

The high level API is not yet finished. The source code is available
through subversion from [2]. A snapshot is available at [3]

Anybody interested in Python and PC/SC is welcome to review the code
and send patches, etc.

Regards
