I found http://www.iseriespython.com/, which is a version of Python for the iSeries apparently including some system specific data access classes. I am keen to try this out, but will have to get approval at work to do so. My questions are:

Does the port work well, or are there limits to what the interpreter can handle compared with standard Python implementations?

Does the iSeries database access layer work well, creating usable objects from table definitions?
