Ann: Validating Emails and HTTP URLs in Python

Hi,

The latest Lepl release includes an implementation of RFC 3696 - the
RFC that describes how best to validate email addresses and HTTP
URLs.  For more information please see http://www.acooke.org/lepl/rfc3696.html

Lepl's main page is http://www.acooke.org/lepl

Because Lepl compiles to regular expressions wherever possible, the
library is quite fast - in testing I was seeing about 1ms needed to
validate a URL.

Please bear in mind that this is the very first release of this
module, so it may have some bugs...  If you find any problems contact
me and I'll fix them ASAP.

Thanks,
Andrew
