Ok, time to go a little more public with this. ...

I have been able to work some more on RaSPF and the results are encouraging. ...

RaSPF , my C port of PySPF , is pretty much functional right now. ...

I am porting pyspf to C (long story, and I am stupid for trying). But of course, C is not python. ...

Ok, the SPF implementation situation is kinda pathetic. ...

UPDATE: There is *another* *better* test suite It is in YAML, though, so I need to parse it before I can use it, but that's my problem. ...
