Is Mike or Jason still following this list?  AFAIK the current views of 
those people who work on tn5250 are:

Mike:  no word
Jason: no word
Carey: yea
Scott: either, but it sounds like yea
James: yea
Marc:  yea

Since at this point the entirety of the changes seems to be changing 
g_free() to free and g_malloc() to malloc() changing it back shouldn't be 
hard should the need arise.

Ok, so maybe I can remove the python stuff?  Not that I'm anxious to axe 
it or that it is causing problems, but if we change the "roadmap" then I 
think it is just a distraction.
