Comment(by olly):

 If you're planning to start wrapping from scratch, then definitely start
 in a new directory, and keep careful track of any code you take from the
 current bindings.  The Python bindings still involve some code we can't
 relicense (in this case the BrightStation copyright).

 Otherwise I'm not sure what's best.  It sounds like we may end up with an
 API which isn't so close to the python 2 one, which tends to suggest
 splitting them as the tests can't be the same.
