[Building Sakai] I made a Python RESTful interface to Sakai: SakaiPy

[William Karavites]

Just confirmed it DOESN'T work on Python3 (for me at least). 

The module it uses to login in to the system (mechanize) is not supported for Python3 yet. If there is another way to login and grab the cookie, I'd be more than happy to use it. So it looks like it is only 2.x supported. I'll have to fix the versions @ the PyPi page.

It SHOULD work in Python 3 though I'm trying to make it so that'll work in 2.x & 3.x. It would be great to have it be Python version agnostic, but if there's a piece of functionality that requires it to be in Python3, so be it. 

I haven't been able to do much testing on different Python versions yet so I'll have to get back to you on that one.

This looks handy. Any plans to port it to Python 3?
