email package 4.0a2

2006-03-06 Thread Barry Warsaw
I'm happy to announce the release of the email 4.0a2 standalone package.
This is the latest version of the email package and will be released
with Python 2.5.  The major changes between this version and email 3.0
(released with Python 2.4) is:

  * All modules have been renamed according to PEP 8 standards.  For
example, email.Message was renamed to email.message.
  * A new subpackage email.mime was added and all the email.MIME*
modules renamed to live inside this subpackage.  For example,
email.MIMEText is now email.mime.text
  * A new class email.mime.application.MIMEApplication has been
added to support application/* content types (thanks Keith
Dart).
  * Methods that were deprecated in version 3 have been removed:
Generator.__call__(), Message.get_type(),
Message.get_main_type(), and Message.get_subtype()

Note that the old, email version 3 package names are still supported for
backward compatibility, so you won't have to change existing code.  New
code should use the new names as the old names will go away in Python
2.6.  Also note that email.mime.application is /not/ provided as
email.MIMEApplication.

There are also many bug fixes and updated documentation.  More
information and links for downloading are available in the cheeseshop:

http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi/email/4.0a2

Barring any complications, this version will be merged into the Python
2.5 subversion tree in a week or so.

Enjoy,
-Barry

Pythomnic, an environment for building reliable services in Python, version 1.0 released

2006-03-06 Thread dmitry
Pythomnic is a conceptual environment for building middleware services
in Python. Recognizing building as a process in time Pythomnic focuses
on the following major directions:

1. Dynamic modules reloading allows changing the source or release a
bunch of new modules on the fly without a need to stop the service.
2. The (presumably unreliable) external systems (ex. databases) are
specifically isolated so that connections can be switched on the fly,
from one to another without losing clients' requests.
3. Different Pythomnic instances running on different machines can talk
seamlessly, making it easy to split and build distributed services and
also build for redundancy. All this also can be done at runtime without
service stop.
4. Easy fault tolerance is another major feature Pythomnic offers to a
conscious developer, by a set of high level syntactically transparent
constructs. This also helps to easily build redundant services.
