About Roundup
=

Roundup is a simple-to-use and -install issue-tracking system with
command-line, web and e-mail interfaces. It is based on the winning design
from Ka-Ping Yee in the Software Carpentry Track design competition.

Note: Ping is not responsible for this project. The contact for this
project is [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Roundup manages a number of issues (with flexible properties such as
description, priority, and so on) and provides the ability to:

(a) submit new issues,
(b) find and edit existing issues, and
(c) discuss issues with other participants.

The system will facilitate communication among the participants by managing
discussions and notifying interested parties when issues are edited. One of
the major design goals for Roundup that it be simple to get going. Roundup
is therefore usable out of the box with any python 2.3+ installation. It
doesn't even need to be installed to be operational, though a
disutils-based install script is provided.

It comes with two issue tracker templates (a classic bug/feature tracker and
a minimal skeleton) and four database back-ends (anydbm, sqlite, mysql
and postgresql).

Resolver One 1.2

2008-08-19 Thread Giles Thomas
We are proud to announce the release of Resolver One, version 1.2 -
the largest IronPython application in the world, we think, at 38,000
lines of production code backed up by 150,000 lines of unit and
functional tests.

Resolver One is a Rapid Application Development tool for analysing and
presenting business data, using a familiar spreadsheet interface
combined with a powerful IronPython-based scripting capability that
allows you to insert your own code directly into the recalculation
loop.

For version 1.2, we have on big headline feature; a new function
called
RunWorkbook that allows you to call one spreadsheet from another,
passing in parameters and pulling out results - just like functions,
but
without having to code the function by hand.  This allows you to mix
spreadsheet-based and code-based logic, using the best paradigm for
the job in hand.

We've also added a whole bunch of usability enhancements - the full
(long!) changelist is up on our website, or you can see a screencast:
 http://www.resolversystems.com/screencasts/release-1.2

It's free for non-commercial use, so if you would like to take a
look,
you can download it from our website:
http://www.resolversystems.com/get-it/ (registration no longer
required).


Best regards,

Giles
