There are two pieces that need to be implemented...

The first is PyKDE for KDE2. This is being worked on at the moment.

The second is the Python interpreter wrapped as a KPart. I'm not aware
that anybody is working on this - but it should be a very simple thing
to do. A good idea for a little project for somebody.

The second piece is not dependent on the first piece - but it will be
more useful when the firts piece is done.
