Hi!

I'm happy to announce that Gevent 0.13.2 is released with a number of
bug fixes and
a new gevent.httplib module that implements fast HTTP client - wrapper
around libevent-http.

What is it?

gevent is a coroutine-based Python networking library that uses
greenlet to provide a high-level synchronous API on top of libevent
event loop.

Features include:

   * Fast event loop based on libevent (epoll on Linux, kqueue on FreeBSD).
   * Lightweight execution units based on greenlet.
   * API that re-uses concepts from the Python standard library (for
example there are Events and Queues).
   * Cooperative sockets with ssl support.
   * DNS queries performed through libevent-dns.
   * Monkey patching utility to get 3rd party modules to become cooperative.
   * Fast WSGI server based on libevent-http.
