[Dev] COM &UNO Integration

There are lots of component architectures around: corba/com/xpcom/uno

I am interested in integration with COM(windows apps) and UNO(openoffice)
particularly.

I am assuming that it should be fairly easy to call com via python and
mark hammonds win32 extensions
http://starship.python.net/crew/mhammond/

But this is on windows only - on other platforms it gets trickier:

There is a pyUNo project
http://polysorbate.org/?work/pyuno

There is also a COM-UNO mapping
http://udk.openoffice.org/common/man/draft/com_lang_spec.html
(I have read some developers complaing about this one.)


Any thoughts?
