Yes, this is a bindings list specific for Python but not restricted to
pygobject or any other module.

Quoting David Malcolm about what the name tries to convey:

 * that it relates to python ("py" does this succinctly)
 * that it's for the implementation details and that you need to know
C, rather than being for people developing stuff in Python using GTK
(which "dev"/"devel" can misleading convey).
 * that questions about the internals are on-topic, even if you're not
developing the internals themselves (which a "dev" or "devel" might
imply
 * that it's a single place to discuss pygtk, pygi, pygobject wrapper
implementations
