Koethe</a> provided the implementation of inheritance and special
method/operator support in the first version of Boost.Python.</p>
Koethe</a> had independently developed a similar system. When he
discovered Boost.Python v1, he generously contributed countless hours of
coding and much insight into improving it. He is responsible for an early
version of the support for function overloading and wrote the support for
reflecting C++ inheritance relationships. He has helped to improve
error-reporting from both Python and C++ (we hope to do as well in v2
again soon), and has designed the original support for exposing numeric
operators, including a way to avoid explicit coercion by means of
overloading.</p>
<p>The members of the boost mailing list and the Python community
supplied invaluable early feedback. In particular, Ron Clarke, Mark
Evans, Anton Gluck, Chuck Ingold, Prabhu Ramachandran, and Barry Scott
took the brave step of trying to use Boost.Python while it was still in
