Regarding G-Wrap: it would certainly be a plus to be more language (or C Scheme API) agnostic. Incidencially, I just started an experimental branch of G-Wrap, in wich I'll try to come up with a language-agnostic, GOOPS-based design for G-Wrap and then build a compatibility layer (offering the current wrapping API) upon it. The project is currently in the draft phase (but there is already a g-wrap--tng branch in my archive; tng stands for "The Next Generation" ;-).
