started that a little as a fun recreation thing on Friday at home,
that first sketch is http://www.blender.org/~antont/blender.blend which just 
includes: 
http://www.blender.org/~antont/green/blender.py - port of SDNA (just data)
http://www.blender.org/~antont/green/modifier.py - current mods as classes
http://www.blender.org/~antont/green/application.py - Creator, replaces G.

that's why made it in a blend (using WordPad to read the c sources..))

Blender functions to use data, but perhaps at some point (i wonder if i 
should start from the blend loader to get the app populated or what :o)
