There is also the lightsteem python client, but I've heard rumors that it's a clone/rip-off of beem?
I haven't done much programming against steem, though I do have some ideas I've been considering to implement.

what kind of ideas do you have? I am mostly interested in advertisement. The current bidbots are not delivering for people that want to advertise and they are also not delivering for the community. In the end they only work because of steem-inflation and are not real advertisement products with a logical revenue stream.
Instead I am interested in trying other solutions to advertisement.
I already have some scripts for checking the average market rate for various crypto currencies and setting up market maker orders towards some few exchanges. I was making great profits running those scripts towards some bad Norwegian exchange with low turnover and stupid customers, eventually I was thrown out of that exchange, I don't think I'm earning much money on it as it is now (but I think it's still useful for converting crypto currencies for the lowest possible cost). I also doubt I would earn much money on using those scripts for buying SBD on the market and converting it back to steem, but at least I would be able to offer a service to the community (reduce the SBD debt) without paying too much for it.
I was also thinking about a bot that will just work the steem sbd markets. But it might be risky with HF20 incoming that may potentially break the low peg to $. The bot I have in mind would obviously use this to evaluate clear buying opportunities and that may be flawed.
Realistically the peg will hold well until the next major crash, so there may be some opportunity.
