[CREATE] LGM 2012 workshop -- lib2geom

[Ricardo Lafuente]

+1 from me.

One of the great promises of lib2geom was IMHO its (still incomplete) 
Python bindings, since there's yet no vector manipulation library for 
Python.

Along with the workshop, it would be super to set up a sprint of sorts 
to advance the Python bindings; I did a little bit of work on them some 
time ago, and would certainly be excited to help organise this effort -- 
and it would be fabulous to have someone with Boost-Python knowledge to 
shed some light on the necessary tasks.

Inkscape extensions, for instance, would benefit immensely from the 
ability to manipulate paths and apply operations from a Python script. I 
could go on about the awesome things Py2geom would make possible :-)
