Some pretty good places to start are

* Perl AFS::Command API (for command parsing),
* Perl AFS API (that does linking instead), and
* Perl AFS-Monitoring (which also does linking).

All of those are on CPAN.  (I  realize you want Python, but those are
useful places to start from).

I would be very interested in following any progress you make on
providing decent APIs in Python.

Thanks,
Steven
