Just curious but is there a reason to use pycontrol over bigsuds? Bigsuds seems like a really simple interface to iControl.

    I like how pycontrol easially maps to the documented iControl API spec. As I learn more about iControl, I may find it useful to use something like Bigsuds or roll my own, but for now I don't need any extra sugar.
