I started a project just over a month ago that fills the same 
role:

https://github.com/marler8997/clrbridge

I started with the dflat project found here 
(https://github.com/thewilsonator/dflat) and eventually changed 
the design to create this new one.  I'll have to take a look at 
your project and see if we can share/mutually benefit from our 
approaches.
