Webware for Python

Hi Mark.

I see that you're working on this; that's great!

A couple of questions:
1. Are you pulling a release from the tip of CVS, or something more modest?
2. We've got some changes to Page.py that make Webkit construct HTML
that validates. Shall we submit it to you or is it too late?

Thanks again for stepping up and helping us all out.

Get well.

Hi, I'm using WebKit 0.81 on Debian Linux. It works fine with Python up 
to 2.2.2, but I get an error *in the generated Python code* from 
MiddleKit with 2.3 on every MiddleKit Object that has an attribute of 
type datetime. I'm using mx.DateTime, the generated code works fine with 
2.2.2.

The example below includes error message and a code snippet from the 
generated Python file.

The code gets generated in MiddleKit/Design/PythonGenerator.py - I could 
work around the type checking by commenting out some code there, but I 
lack understanding for what goes wrong. Any clues?
