The good news in this case is that the same API has been used successfully in Java and C++ for years so it is unlikely that any major changes will need to be made. That doesn't follow. An API that's appropriate for Java or C++ is not necessarily appropriate for Python. Slavishly copying an API from another language is often not the best approach when designing an API for a Python module.
