It isn't a goal of Converge to be Pythonic as such (particularly as Python 2.x is a philosophically different beast to Python 1.4/1.5-ish).
My impression of Boo is that its macros are a very different kettle of fish to Converge's compile-time meta-programming. Boo seems much more similar to Nemerle than Converge. As far as I can tell, there's no quasi-quoting (which would mean building ASTs by hand all the time) and no support for things like hygiene. I'd be happy to be corrected though.
