pyrex/cython require you to learn a new domain specific language, and generate ugly/obfuscated code. PyBindGen is just a Python module. It also generates readable and compact wrapper code.

sip I don't know very well, but I know it is written in C++; for extending it it is a big problem. PyBindGen is written in Python and is extensible.

Can you help with this problem?
