 Done.

 Will do, thanks!

 need somebody with two months of free time for this. We should revisit
 this in 6 months from now.

 Onionoo ''is'' fun, but it's quite easy to underestimate the effort of
 rewriting it in Python.  The problem is that we need a full replacement
 that is as reliable as the Java Onionoo, or it won't be of any use.
 That's different from other GSoC projects where an 80% version of what was
 originally planned can be quite useful.  I think I wouldn't recommend
 Onionoo as a GSoC project.

 This is getting off-topic.  Should we close the ticket and move the GSoC
 discussion somewhere else? :)
