Paolo,

I just got an additional simple idea which is somewhat connected to ASE,
which can be used as ideas @ google summer of code.
Namely, there is already a similar scripting interface that is specific
for Quantum Espresso, its name is PWTK.
http://pwtk.qe-forge.org/
http://qe-forge.org/projects/pwtk/

It is smaller and more limited than ASE but nevertheless functional,
flexible and working. It has some very useful productivity-oriented
features. It is written in Tcl, but because python is getting
increasingly and Tcl decreasingly popular one may consider to write also
a python implementation of PWTK.

Regards, Tone
