I'd like to announce the first public release of PyMC, a Markovian 
system analysis package that includes modules for Markov chain Monte 
Carlo (MCMC), Kalman filtering (linear and non-linear), reinforcement 
learning, and function approximation. It relies on (among other things) 
scipy, mainly for plotting at this point (I wanted to use scipy for its 
probability distributions as well, but these were quite slow -- maybe 
in the future). Its been tested on OSX, Linux and Windows. Its still a 
bit rough around the edges, but I've used it for a wide array of 
applications already, mostly associated with natural resource 
management problems. For more information and downloads:
