I was just wondering if I could get some thoughts on the good and bad
points of each from someone who has used both.  It looks like Verrazano
development has dried up quite a bit.  The SWIG backend for CFFI is
new, but I know that SWIG has a large community.
So, which generates nicer (fewer warnings/errors) binding code?  Which
is easier to use?  Other random comments? :)

Cheers
Brad

All signs indicate that Verrazano has been abandoned by its sole 
developer. Worth picking up by someone else? I do not know, because I do 
not know SWIG.
