There is a growing need for basic converters (libraries) to convert Creole to XHTML in different programming languages. If you have written such a converter, please add it below. Ideally it can easily be imported and called with a single function, that will take Creole and spit out valid html/xhtml.
Does such a thing exist? Maybe someone is near completion and just hasn't added it to the wiki?
When adding a converter it would be helpful to note the license. GPL converters generally can not be used in non-GPL programs.

Why the languages above?#
There exists a Markdown converter for eleven of the languages above. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markdown) Sure, some of the languages are less important than others, but if we had all eleven languages we'd be as broad platform as Markdown.
