Hi Jon,
I will make an effort on this. Do you think we need to keep these APIs
compatibility work with Python2 or completely remove out?
Great! To me you can just update the current code and don't worry about
compatibility.
If anybody has used the current module they will have their own copy,
and I cannot imagine that anybody will write new programs for Puthon 2
by now.

Hi Jon,
I've done this a long time ago:
5057f8bb4de0 tipcutils: introduce python api
Basically, it works with Python 2.
Do you think it you would have time to do this for Python 3?
Python 2 is practically dead now, as we all know.

I am updating the programmer's manual, and realized that the Python API
is missing.
Since there are so many programmers knowing Python nowadays, but not C,
I think it would
be very useful to have this API in the manual, so those programmers can
get a feeling
for how simple it to use TIPC.
Tuong started development of an API based on the libtipc C-API, but it
seems to me it was never finished.
However, Python does since a long time have native TIPC support,
allegedly both in Python 2 and Pyton 3.
I had never seen that API until now, but after some googling I came over
the following link, that seems to contain
that native implemenation:
https://blitiri.com.ar/p/pytipc/
I wonder if anybody has the time to try this one, and verify, using the
examples, that it really works.
It would be embarrassing to add this to the manual if it turns out it
doesn't work.

PS. Does anybody volunteer to be become co-maintainer of the home page
and project page
at SourceForge? I think we should even consider moving it to
GitLab or GitHub.
Since we have our own domain (tipc.io) that could easily be
re-steered to a different
host system.
