Pyjnius: Accessing Java classes from Python

@jpdus Will you elaborate on why you are eager to ditch Jython in favor of CPython? I guess I have a soft spot for Jython.

Overall this project looks very interesting- Can't wait to go through the source code at https://github.com/kivy/pyjnius to see how this works under the hood.

Cheers.

@jaytaylor The main reason for my part is that most/all my projects are pure python so far and im way more familiar with (C)Python and its libraries (numpy/scipy fe), dependencies, etc. than i am with Java. I like Jython too, but if i had the opportunity to do everything in pure Python i would ditch it nevertheless!

Mostly JNI, plus using our core class to use the java.reflect and discover methods and fields (you can't do it in JNI :/)
