Just when I thought I was finished for a while, KDE 3.0.1 is released. I haven't downloaded it yet, but from the ChangeLogs, it looks like there's probably enough new stuff to warrant a PyKDE update. 'cpp' file changes make no difference, h file changes are what matter, and it looks like kio and some others have some new methods. The coming weekend is a holiday in the US, and I'm in the middle of some other stuff, so it will be at least several weeks for an update.
The other stuff I'm in the middle of is business forms (invoices and stuff). I've been using ReportLab (http://www.reportlab.com) and it's a great piece of software. It allows you to compose pdf files in Python, which wasn't the first thing I had in mind but turns out to be a great solution both for printing, previewing and emailing this kind of stuff. I was able to write a single Form class that will handle all of the various docs (more than half a dozen) I need to generate in about a day and a half. Next I have to do the UI in PyKDE - I hope that's as easy to use :) The other piece of news is that Ricardo Cardenes is modifying the PyKDE 'build' script to enable concatenating all of a module's cpp files into a single huge file. He's doing it for Debian, but is contributing the changes back to PyKDE, and this will be an option in a future version. No news yet on how much compile time is affected.
