There's a discrepancy between the C and Python jellyfish implementations for metaphone with what it does for W's followed by vowels. metaphone('Walt') is 'WLT' in the C and 'LT' in the Python versions. It looks like 'WLT' should be the correct behavior.
I guess it is a good thing both that my name is Walt and that I've been forced to use the pure Python rather than C version of this function in two different places!
