[XML-SIG] fwd: Introducing pyNMS, SNMP, MIB and other tools for Python

[Alexandre]

Hello,

I've just received this from the python-anounce ML. The mention of POM
(python object model) for XML manipulation looks like it could interest
a few of us here on the XML-SIG, so I take the liberty to forward the 
message.

I haven't looked at thepackage yet.

Subject: Introducing pyNMS, SNMP, MIB and other tools for Python

The pyNMS package is a collection of Python (and some C) modules for use in
network management applications. It is also useful for testing and other types
of applications. 

The package as a whole is currently in development, and much of the top-level
NMS functionality (namely, a GUI interface). But, man low-level modules are
still very useful for custom management scripts. 

Some notworthy sub-packages and modules:

SNMP    -- An implementation of SNMP v1 and v2c (Manager only now.. but Agent
           class just needs to be filled in). 
SMI     -- A library, based on wrapping libsmi, for parsing and accessing MIB
           files. 

Devices -- Defines SNMP Manager objects for specific devices. You can create a
	   class that represent as device, and define which MIBs it supports.

POM     -- Python Object Model for XML. This is patterned after XML DOM, but is
           more pythonic. It also incorporates some XPath funcionality. 

HTML    -- Utilities and classes for creating XHTML documents. This is based on
           the POM module. 


This project is being hosted on Sourceforge.

Looking for feedback and testers. 

Have a Great day,
