The Python and C bindings will be supported in-tree going forward.  In
particular, the C bindings are being used by the Xen-CIM project, and so are
actively being used and relied upon.

The Java bindings that Tom Wilkie posted recently are not an official part of
the Xen project, and not included in the tree; this is a third-party project
as part of his work at the University of Cambridge.  These bindings may be
included at some later date, given time, but they are still a work-in-progress
at the moment.
