[ANN] Python testing client for Second Life virtual world

If anyone is curious, I'm working on a GUI shell for the python second 
life client, pyogp.

Temp home for pyogp intro: 
https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Pyogp/Client_Lib
Basically the [first] plan is to have a GUI wrapper around the sample 
code with a batch file option, and to allow multiple avatar execution 
and control in the same process. It's been tested in the command line 
with up to 20 avatars at once, and the goal is to handle 200 at least, 
for QA purposes, so the GUI has to handle that as well.

Its a pretty interesting project, IMHO. Gives complete source for 
non-graphical aspects of interface with the Second Life virtual world. 
Apache V2 licensed.

[ANNOUNCE] PyGTK 2.15.0 - unstable

A new unstable development release of the Python bindings
for GTK+ has been released.

The new release is available from ftp.gnome.org and its mirrors
as soon as its synced correctly:

   http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/pygtk/2.15/

Blurb:

GTK+ is a toolkit for developing graphical applications that run on
systems such as Linux, Windows and MacOS X. It provides a comprehensive set
of GUI widgets, can display Unicode bidi text.  It links into the Gnome
Accessibility Framework through the ATK library.

PyGTK provides a convenient wrapper for the GTK+ library for use in
Python programs, and takes care of many of the boring details such as
managing memory and type casting.  When combined with PyORBit and
gnome-python, it can be used to write full featured Gnome applications.

Like the GTK+ library itself PyGTK is licensed under the GNU LGPL, so is
suitable for use in both free software and proprietary applications.  It
is already in use in many applications ranging from small single purpose
scripts up to large full features applications.

What's new since 2.14.1?
   - Update pygtk to use numpy instead of Numeric
      (Josselin Mouette, Brian Cameron, #397544)
    - Update the address of the FSF (Tobias Mueller, #577154)
    - Wrap gtk_builder_add_objects_from_string and

[ANN] regobj - Pythonic object-based access to the Windows Registry

Hi All,

  I've just released the results of a nice Sunday's coding, inspired by
one too many turns at futzing around with the _winreg module.  The
"regobj" module brings a convenient and clean object-based API for
accessing the Windows Registry.

    http://pypi.python.org/pypi/regobj/

  More details and some API examples below for those who are interested.

  Cheers,

      Ryan

"""

  regobj:  Pythonic object-based access to the Windows Registry

  License:  BSD
  Current Release:  0.1.0

This module provides a thin wrapper around the standard _winreg module,
allowing easier and more pythonic access to the Windows Registry. All
access to the registry is done through Key objects, which (surprise!)
represent a specific registry key.

Starting from pre-defined root keys, all subkey access is done using
standard attribute syntax:

python-graph-1.5.0 released

 * Support for directed, undirected, weighted and non-weighted graphs
 * Support for hypergraphs
 * Canonical operations
 * XML import and export
 * DOT-Language output (for usage with Graphviz)
 * Random graph generation

 * Accessibility (transitive closure)
 * Breadth-first search
 * Critical path algorithm 
 * Cut-vertex and cut-edge identification 
 * Depth-first search
 * Heuristic search (A* algorithm)

IMDbPY 4.1 and IMDbPYKit 1.1.1

IMDbPY 4.1 and IMDbPYKit 1.1.1 are available (tgz, deb, rpm, exe) from:
  http://imdbpy.sourceforge.net/

IMDbPY is a Python package useful to retrieve and manage the data of
the IMDb movie database about movies, people, characters and companies.
IMDbPYKit (mostly developed by H. Turgut Uyar) is a web interface to 
IMDbPY, able to serve its output both in HTML and XML.

With this release, a DTD for the XML output was formalized and support 
for i18n was introduced. A lot of bugs were fixed.

Platform-independent and written in pure Python (and few C lines),
IMDbPY can retrieve data from both the IMDb's web server and a local
copy of the whole database.

IMDbPY package can be very easily used by programmers and developers
to provide access to the IMDb's data to their programs.
Some simple example scripts are included in the package; other
IMDbPY-based programs are available from the home page.
