[ANN] Release 0.64.2 of Task Coach

2007-06-30 Thread Frank Niessink
Hi,

I'm pleased to announce release 0.64.2 of Task Coach. This is a bug
fix release that should fix the following bugs:

* Don't take child task priority into account when sorting by priority
in the task tree view.
* Don't block OS shutdown on Windows.


What is Task Coach?

Task Coach is a simple task manager that allows for hierarchical
tasks, i.e. tasks in tasks. Task Coach is open source (GPL) and is
developed using Python and wxPython. You can download Task Coach from:

http://www.taskcoach.org
https://sourceforge.net/projects/taskcoach/

In addition to the source distribution, packaged distributions are
available for Windows XP, Mac OSX, and Linux (Debian and RPM format).

Note that Task Coach is alpha software, meaning that it is wise to back
up your task file regularly, and especially when upgrading to a new release.

Cheers, Frank

ANN: munepy 1.3 - yet another Python enumeration package

2007-06-30 Thread Barry Warsaw
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

I'm pleased to announce the release of munepy 1.3.  munepy is yet  
another Python enumeration package.  It is compatible with Python 2.4  
and 2.5.  It's not called 'enum' because that's already taken by an  
alternative enum package.  From the README.txt file:

Introduction


This package is called `munepy`.  It is yet another Python enum  
package, but
with a slightly different take on syntax and semantics than earlier such
packages.

The goals of munepy were to produce simple, specific, concise  
semantics in an
easy to read and write syntax.  munepy has just enough of the  
features needed
to make Enums useful, but without a lot of extra baggage to weigh  
them down.
This work grew out of the Mailman 3.0 project and it is the enum  
package used
there.

The name `munepy` is a play on words.  *mune* is *enum* backwards,  
and *py* is
a common suffix for Python code.  *munepy* is pronounced exactly the  
same as
the delicious round chocolaty (if appearance indicates) pastry Moon  
Pie, which
is best when consumed with an RC cola.

Why another Python enum implementation?  'Cause I like mine better. :)

Here's just a small example, from the documentation:

 >>> from munepy import Enum
 >>> class Colors(Enum):
 ... red = 1
 ... green = 2
 ... blue = 3

 >>> print Colors.red
 Colors.red

 >>> Colors.red is Colors.red
 True
 >>> Colors.blue is Colors.blue
 True
 >>> Colors.red is not Colors.blue
 True
 >>> Colors.blue is Colors.red
 False

 >>> int(Colors.red)
 1
 >>> int(Colors.green)
 2
 >>> int(Colors.blue)
 3

Download the package from the Cheeseshop:

http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi/munepy

The source code is maintained under the Bazaar version control  
system.  You can access the code from here:

https://code.launchpad.net/munepy/

The project home is here:

Enjoy,
- -Barry
