Artem,

I haven't heard of anyone attempting this with python yet.

The ka-Map framework is actually relatively independent of the back end, 
it certainly doesn't require MapServer.  The client side code needs an 
initialization script to return certain information and a script to 
return tiles, but the implementation could be based on any rendering 
engine you like.

I'd be interested in taking a look :)

Cheers

Paul
