  Description     : Interpreter for AIML, the Artificial Intelligence Markup Language

PyAIML is an interpreter for AIML (the Artificial Intelligence Markup
Language developed by Dr. Richard Wallace of the A.L.I.C.E. Foundation),
implemented entirely in standard Python. It strives for simple, austere,
100% compliance with the AIML 1.0.1 standard and can be used to implement 
a conversational AI program.



PyAIML is used for the latest version of the Sugar [1] activity Speak [2] which is quite popular on the XO-1.
ITP for Fedora (with Spec file / SRPM attached) is at [3].
