Hi All,
Pydev and Pydev Extensions 1.0.8 have been released
Check http://www.fabioz.com/pydev for details on Pydev Extensions
and http://pydev.sf.net for details on Pydev
This is a 'single-bugfix' release because of a major bug that could cause
Pydev to hang when making a new line under certain condations.
What is PyDev?
---------------------------
PyDev is a plugin that enables users to use Eclipse for Python and Jython
development -- making Eclipse a first class Python IDE -- It comes with many
goodies such as code completion, syntax highlighting, syntax analysis,
refactor, debug and many others.

Subject: [ANNOUNCE] Thirty-second release of PythonCAD now available
Message-ID: <20060525211532.GB2132@artsapartment.org>
Hi.
I'm pleased to announce the thirty-second development release of PythonCAD,
a CAD package for open-source software users. As the name implies,
PythonCAD is written entirely in Python. The goal of this project is
to create a fully scriptable drafting program that will match and eventually
exceed features found in commercial CAD software. PythonCAD is released
under the GNU Public License (GPL).
PythonCAD requires Python 2.2 or newer. The interface is GTK 2.0
based, and uses the PyGTK module for interfacing to GTK. The design of
PythonCAD is built around the idea of separating the interface
from the back end as much as possible. By doing this, it is hoped
that both GNOME and KDE interfaces can be added to PythonCAD through
usage of the appropriate Python module. Addition of other PythonCAD
interfaces will depend on the availability of a Python module for that
particular interface and developer interest and action.
The thirty-second release fixes a configuration problem where the
newly added autosplitting feature would not be activated properly
or could disable autosplitting in a Layer. A small bug in the
reworked splitting code was also fixed, as well as a few other
small errors.
A mailing list for the development and use of PythonCAD is available.
Visit the following page for information about subscribing and viewing
the mailing list archive:
http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythoncad
Visit the PythonCAD web site for more information about what PythonCAD
does and aims to be:
http://www.pythoncad.org/
Come and join me in developing PythonCAD into a world class drafting
program!

Subject: Quill 0.1-alpha1 released!
Message-ID: <1148595448.853026.319540@i40g2000cwc.googlegroups.com>
It took us quite longer than we expected but here it is. Quill is a
visual Web interface designer based on QuiX, Porcupine's integrated XML
User-Interface Language. We believe this is a major leap for the web
interface design process, as it has become almost identical to this of
a common desktop application.
This is an alpha release and as such there are a lot of missing
features, but generally you can get things done a lot faster and easier
than before. This release supports almost every QuiX widget, giving you
full control over it, exhibiting all of its editable properties.
Have you ever thought that you could have a QuiX window with a menu bar
and a tool bar deployed in less than 3 minutes? Watch this screencast
to see how this is achieved with Quill and Porcupine:
http://www.innoscript.org/screencasts/demo1.swf.html
Quill runs on Linux and Windows and it is provided as freeware.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Hello everyone dealing with agility!
This is a reminder for submission of talks for EuroPython,
and in particular the "agility" track. You still have time
to register your proposal for the 3-5th July conference.
The proposals' registration ends on 31st of May.
Early bird registration for participants closes today, btw.
The full call and submission links are at:
http://www.europython.org/sections/tracks_and_talks/call-for-proposals
We currently envision our track to consist of two or three sessions,
which we'll sketch out at the end of this mail. We'd like to
discuss/plan with the actual talkers before the conference
how we do the sessions.
If you have tools, management experiences or theories related
to agile practises, please don't hesitate to draft an
abstract, it'll be fun and interesting to get together at
EuroPython 2006!
Please feel free to contact us as track chairs personally
in case of questions,

- --- Agility Track Session descriptions ---
Management and Methods
- --------------------------
* experience reports from managing distributed groups
* commercially dealing with open source communities
* practising agile methodologies and practices (XP, Scrum, TDD etc)
with respect to programmers,non-programmers, customers or government
bodies.
The focus should be on "project reality" situations that do not match
with the original planning or methods. By this we mean understanding
how you "tailored" agile methods/practices to fit your project,
understanding the problems and drivers behind this step and the results
achieved. Reports from managing a company or a particular project (with
respect to the bullet points above) are welcome given that they are not
used for advertising but aim at an effective exchange of experiences.
Tools
- -----------------
* general and domain specific test support tools
* tools and technical approaches for organising communication
and collaborative work in agile settings
* tools supporting agile practises in general
This session will present tools which support agility in programming,
collaboration and organising communication. A special focus should be
on how the tools are used in real life and how they were adapted to deal
with it.

Message-ID: <71b6302c0605260625y3dfd1dc9y237d9e2b166334cf@mail.gmail.com>
Hi,
0.3.5 release of pywinauto is now available.
pywinauto is a set of open-source (LGPL) modules for using Python as a GUI
automation 'driver' for Windows NT based Operating Systems (NT/W2K/XP).
SourceForge project page:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywinauto
Download from SourceForge
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=157379
Here is the list of changes from 0.3.4:
0.3.5 Moved to Metaclass control wrapping
------------------------------------------------------------------
24-May-2006
* Moved to a metaclass implementation of control finding. This
removes some cyclic importing that had to be worked around and
other then metaclass magic makes the code a bit simpler.
* Some of the sample files would not run - so I updated them
so they would (Thanks to Stefaan Himpe for pointing this out)
* Disabled saving application data (it was still being saved in
Application.RecordMatch() even if the rest of the application
data code is disabled. This was causing what appeared to be a
memory leak where pywinauto would keep grabbing more and more
memory (especially for controls that contain a lot of
information). Thanks to Frank Martinez for leading me to this).
* Added ListViewWrapper.GetItemRect() to enable retrieving the
rectangle for a particular item in the listview.
* Removed references to _ctrl() method within pywinauto as it
was raising a DeprecationWarning internally even if the user
was not using it.
If you want to follow this project then please sign up to the mailing list:
https://lists.sourceforge.net/mailman/listinfo/pywinauto-users
Thanks

Subject: ANN: buzhug, a new pure-Python database engine
Message-ID: <1148754633.368173.246390@i40g2000cwc.googlegroups.com>
buzhug is a new, fast, pure-Python database engine, using a pythonic
syntax (no SQL). It is published at http://buzhug.sourceforge.net under
the BSD licence
Here is an overview of the interface :
from buzhug import Base
my_cds = Base('my_cds')
my_cds.create(('artist',str),('title',str),('issued',int))
my_cds.insert(artist='Kaiser
Chiefs',title='Employment',issued=2005)
my_cds.insert(artist='Rialto',title='Night On Earth',issued=2002)
my_cds.insert('Oasis','Definitely Maybe',1994)
cd = my_cds.select(artist="Oasis")[0]
print cd.title
> "Definitely Maybe"
new_cds = [ cd for cd in my_cds if cd.issued > 2000 ]
Pretty straightforward, isn't it ? As you can see on the last line, the
database is an iterator, yielding objects which have attributes of the
same name as the fields in the base
songs = Base('songs')
songs.create(('title',str),('cd',my_cds))
cd = my_cds.select(title="Definitely Maybe")[0]
song_id = songs.insert('Supersonic',cd)
song = songs[song_id] # lookup by record id
print song.cd.artist
> "Oasis"
A field can be a reference to another database. When you have finished
entering all the songs you can get the track listing by
[ song.title for song in songs if song.cd.title == "Definitely
Maybe" ]
A complete documentation, with a tutorial, is available on the web site
The implementation has been designed to make all operations, especially
selection, as fast as possible, while processing the data on disk (it
is not an in-memory database). On a limited set of tests I found that
it is much faster than gadfly and KirbyBase, and only less than 3 times
slower than SQLite
This is still a beta version, so I need feedback on the syntax,
performance, bug reports etc. Please send any comment or question to
the Google group : http://groups.google.com/group/buzhug?lnk=li

Pierre

If you've been planning to submit a talk but haven't gotten
around to it yet, now's the time to do it. On the other hand, if
you haven't considered speaking yet, maybe you should think about

In either case, get yourself to:

Subject: Open Source Developers' Conference 2006 - Call for papers
Message-ID: <200605310900.11627.richardjones@optushome.com.au>

The Open Source Developers' Conference is an Australian conference
designed for developers, by developers. It covers numerous programming
languages across a range of operating systems. We're seeking papers on
Open Source languages, technologies, projects and tools as well as topics
of interest to Open Source developers.
The conference will be held in Melbourne, Victoria (Monash University's
Caulfield Campus) from the 6th to the 8th of December, 2006.
Last year's conference had about 160 people and around 60 presentations on
a range of topics - see http://osdc2005.cgpublisher.com/proposals/ for a
list. This list might also be useful if you're looking for ideas on what
sort of thing would be appropriate.
If you have any questions, or have never submitted a paper proposal
before, please read our FAQ page at http://www.osdc.com.au/faq/index.html
If you don't find an answer there, please contact richard at osdc.com.au
To submit a proposal, follow the instructions at
http://www.osdc.com.au/papers/cfp06.html
This year we're also going to run a day of tutorials. See the CFP
for more information.
The deadline for proposals is 12th July 2006.
Hope to see you there!
The OSDC 2006 committee.

Subject: ANN: devtools 0.9.0
Message-ID: <20060531130659.GB20894@crater.logilab.fr>
I'm pleased to announce the 0.9.0 release of devtools.
What's new ?
------------
2006-05-31 -- 0.9.0
* buildpackage: offers to test the packages with piuparts
* preparedistrib: offers to copy the COPYING file from a set of
known licenses
* buildpackage: fixed missing DEBUILDER environment variable bug
* dos2unix: removal (unused, buggy, conflicts with debian package tofrodos)
* debianize: fix the way to handle subpackage's __init__.py file (there
is now a subpackage_master boolean property in the __pkginfo__.py which
tells if a package is handling the __init__.py file, so now only one
subpackage should set this to True and the others should depends on
this package)
* debianize: fix Uploader to Uploaders in control
* pkginfo: fix debian handler detection
* makedistrib: don't ask to tag package if an error occurs
* vcslib: added mercurial support
What is devtools ?
