For the record, Polymake switched to jReality (http://www3.math.tu-
berlin.de/jreality) for its 3d graphics recently. So, apart from
nauty, which probably isn't that crucial to Polymake, I think its all
GPL now. I saw a few glimpses of the jReality GUI and it looks really
nice!

I don't think this is a particularly useful project. The cddlib API
is, by today's standards, not very well designed. No automatic
documentation. PPL is
Jean-Philippe,
if you feel adventurous, you might try using PPL with Sage, as Volker
suggests.
I understand that the basic functionality is already there.
You can also develop a Cython interface to cddlib, to get Sage on par
with Polymake in this regard.

My personal roadmap for Sage's Polyhedron class is:
1) wait until PPL is a standard spkg, see
http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/10039
Right now Sage is communicating with cddlib via virtual terminals by
printing/parsing ascii text. This is obviously slow. The PPL Cython
interface, which
