patch to add support for jabber and spread messages to logging

Hello all,
I've just finished a little patch to logging.handlers to send logging 
events notification as both jabber and spread messages.
It's rather untested, but perhaps it's already useful.

You'll find it at http://pyhacks.suddenthinks.com/

Any comment will be appreciated, as usual.

PyCon DC 2004: Call for Proposals

[Please repost to local Python mailing lists.]

Want to share your expertise?  PyCon DC 2004 is looking for proposals to
fill the formal presentation tracks.

PyCon DC 2003 had a broad range of presentations, from reports on
academic and commercial projects to tutorials and case studies, and we
hope to extend that range this year.  As long as the presentation is
interesting and potentially useful to the Python community, it will be
considered for inclusion in the program.

The proposal deadline is December 1; the proposal submission system
should be up by mid-October.  We'll send out another notice with more
info when the submission system goes live.

Proposals should be 250-1000 words in text (plain or reST) or HTML.  You
may request either thirty or sixty minutes for your timeslot.  Proposals
will be accepted or rejected by January 1, 2004.  If your proposal is
accepted, you may include a companion paper for publication on the PyCon
web site.

If you don't want to make a formal presentation, there will be a
significant amount of Open Space to allow for informal and
spur-of-the-moment presentations for which no formal submission is
required.  There will also be several Lightning Talk sessions (five
minutes or less).

For more information, see http://www.python.org/pycon/dc2004/cfp.html

PyCon is a community-oriented conference targeting developers (both those

ZODB 3.2 release candidate 1

We are happy to announce that ZODB 3.2 release candidate 1 has been
released.  You can find it at the usual place:
http://www.zope.org/Products/ZODB3.2.

This release contains a few bug fixes since the ZODB 3.2b3 release last
week.  If no major bugs are found in the release candidate, we will make
the final release next week with identical code.  If there are bugs, we
will do another release candidate next week.

What is ZODB? It is the Zope Object Database. It provides an
object-oriented database for Python that provides a high-degree of
transparency. Applications can take advantage of object database
features with few, if any, changes to application logic.  ZODB includes
features such as a pluggable storage interface, rich transaction
support, and undo.

ZODB 3.2 has a number of new features and improvements over ZODB 3.1:
  - improve performance and stability of ZEO
  - new ZEO authentication protocol
  - new configuration language, ZConfig, for databases, storages,
    and ZEO servers
  - many bug fixes
  - improved documentation
  - new daemon tools

The most recent changes from the NEWS.txt file are included below.

Spe 0.3.0.a IDE with Blender and wxGlade support

Spe 0.3.0.a

Spe is a python IDE with auto-indentation, auto completion, call tips,
syntax coloring, syntax highlighting, class explorer, source index,
auto todo list, sticky notes, integrated pycrust shell, python file
browser, recent file browser, drag&drop, context help, ... Special is
its blender support with a blender 3d object browser and its ability
to run interactively inside blender. Spe is extensible with boa.

:Links:
- Homepage: http://spe.pycs.net
- Website: http://projects.blender.org/projects/spe/
- Screenshots: http://spe.pycs.net/pictures/index.html
- Forum: http://projects.blender.org/forum/?group_id=30
- RSS feed: http://spe.pycs.net/weblog/rss.xml

Spe now ships with a minimal preference dialog box, which will be
further extended. The most important editor settings can now be set,
so
spe can now also be used by those who prefer tabs instead of spaces.
I'm afraid spe will fail to work with Python 2.2.1, so please upgrade!

Regular Expression (regex) console. Altough still a pre-alpha
release, it might be already usefull. For more info:

ANNOUNCE: wxPython 2.4.2.4

Announcing
----------

I'm pleased to announce the 2.4.2.4 release of wxPython, now available 
for download at http://wxpython.org/download.php or 
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=10718&release_id=166530

What is wxPython?
-----------------

wxPython is a GUI toolkit for the Python programming language. It allows 
Python programmers to create programs with a robust, highly functional 
graphical user interface, simply and easily. It is implemented as a 
Python extension module that wraps the popular wxWindows cross platform 
GUI library, which is written in C++.

wxPython is a cross-platform toolkit. This means that the same program 
will usually run on multiple platforms without modifications. Currently 
supported platforms are 32-bit Microsoft Windows, most Linux or other 
Unix-like systems, and Macintosh OS X.

Changes in 2.4.2.4
------------------

This version is mostly a bug-fix release, but there are also a few new 
features:

    * Use wxSTC in the demo for displaying the soucre code of the
      samples.

RELEASED Python 2.3.2 (final)

On behalf of the Python development team and the Python community, I'm
happy to announce the release of Python 2.3.2 (final).

Python 2.3.2 is a bug-fix release, to repair a couple of build problems
and packaging errors in Python 2.3.1. 

For more information on Python 2.3.2, including download links for
various platforms, release notes, and known issues, please see:

    http://www.python.org/2.3.2

Highlights of this new release include:

  - A bug in autoconf that broke building on HP/UX systems is fixed.

  - A bug in the Python configure script that meant os.fsync() was 
    never available is fixed.

Highlights of the previous major Python release (2.3) are available     
from the Python 2.3 page, at                                            

    http://www.python.org/2.3/highlights.html

Many apologies for the flaws in 2.3.1 release. Hopefully the new 
release procedures should stop this happening again.

Enjoy the new release,
Anthony

ANN: Pyblosxom 0.8.1

Pyblosxom 0.8.1
---------------
Pyblosxom is a weblog engine that uses standard text files located on 
your filesystem as a database of weblog entries. The concept is simple, 
managing content is as easy as editing a text file with your favourite 
text editor.

Announcement
------------
After a long testing phase, pyblosxom 0.8.1 is out now and you can find
the files at
[https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=67445&release_id=188449
sourceforge].

Those who have downloaded 0.8 previously (this was not announced here) and
those who used the pyblosxom comments plugin are advised to use this 
version,
due to a flaw that was recently discovered.

The CVS commit changelog can be found at
http://roughingit.subtlehints.net/code/ChangeLog.html

Important Changes to note in this version are:
  * New callback added `cb_story_end()` to fix a potential scripting
    attack via comments -- if the commentor enters text using $ they can
    access entry and config variables.
  * `contrib/plugins/pycategories.py`: Fixes the bug where a directory
    (which has no entries) has a subdirectory which does have entries
    doesn't get shown.
  * pyarchives plugin now uses templates instead of hardcoded to use
