As long as I know there are no native Python bindings available for Tamino
available. Because Tamino supports ODBC you could try to the ZODBC database
adapter
for Zope. ZODBC DA runs under Win2K. If you only need the integration of
Tamino
into Python I would try to connect Tamino through JDBC with JPython (the
Java implementation
of the Python language).
