     require careful coordination with Ledger-CLI as an upstream, and we'll

 . Build a better Python interface to Ledger-CLI for use by our API.
    Right now, Ledger-CLI has a rather incomplete Python interface, based on
    [Boost.Python](http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_55_0/libs/python/doc/).
    However, the right approach is probably to use
    [SWIG](http://www.swig.org/) or some other similar mechanism to build a
    proper Python API.  Perhaps Ledger-CLI could stick with Boost.Python, but
    what's there clearly needs an overhaul.  The upside of using SWIG will be
    that we can get APIs for other languages too.
    While this project is of primary interest to this project, it will require
    careful coordination with Ledger-CLI as an upstream, and we'll help mentor
    the student in that.
