[IPython-dev] user_variables/expressions ready in kernel

[Brian Granger]

Fernando,

This is great, we can do a review tomorrow.  I just pushed some fixes
to the heartbeat polling.  I had a few bugs, and I think there is a
minor bug in zeromq with this.  But i added logic to deal with it, so
it should behave well now.

Cheers,

Brian
