Well, to be honest, some simple python script, or python-style function with keyword-arguments calling conventions would be much more intuitive.
If you're talking about syntax matters, then it's a beated horse. Are you willing to join the V2-to-Python porting effort?
Do you have any references where I can learn more about this ? I know we already talked about it in the past, but I have only a very vague idea about what it actually means.
The only thing I can point to is instructions for getting that port: https://zigzag.cs.msu.su/boost.build/wiki/PythonPort It's very early version, so don't expect much from it. Basically, the idea is to rewrite high-level part of Boost.Build, while retaining the underlying build engine and (initially), Jamfile syntax. After that, we can consider allowing Python build description files. - Volodya
