It's been a while since I last dived in. I ought to give it another try. Python scripting isn't my first choice, but it has potential. I've heard some really nice things about how easy and modular the new scripting for 2.5 is. I've been thinking about cooking up my own lip-syncing solution.
Yea Python is awesome. :D I was able to get a reasonable enough grip on it to make my first script in 2 days, without any previous coding exp. ...which is amazing really. By the time 2.6 is out, you will be able to control everything in Blender via scripting, which has some great potential. Even the GUI is all python coded…
