Hi

I have been using object crafts csv module for quite a few projects, 
mainly because I found the csv in python in it's current incarnation
is funtionally inferior to object crafts. The object craft module
for instance allowed you build up csv gradually (ie field at a time
rather the python csv module where the writer does the work a record at 
a time) which isn't always the way I would like to work,
also I have always had encoding problems (specifcally it doesn't
support unicode as per the docs) everytime I used the python
module where as the object craft one always worked out of the box.

Only problem is object craft seemed to have disappeared off the face
of the net (ie I can't even resolve their name in DNS).

Which is a pity as I don't have a current copy for 2.3 (windows)
of their csv module.

Does anyone have a copy of the object-craft csv module, or does
anyone know where they have relocated ?

It is a pity if they have disappeared.

Rgds

Tim
