Version 3.16 released

dispy version 3.16 has been released. This release fixes following issues:

  • dispynode executes programs with subprocess.Popen without 'shell=True' to avoid security issues, as explained in subprocess reference. This apparently doesn't work under Windows when Python programs are executed, as Windows command shell is needed to invoke Python interpreter to execute the given program. This is fixed in this release by invoking the interpreter directly (without using 'shell=True' option).

  • dispyscheduler for Python 2.7+ in dispy-3.15 was broken due to a typo - submitting jobs failed. dispyscheduler for Python 3.1+ didn't have this issue.

  • dispyscheduler now works with VPN / NAT / Masquerading when behind firewalls.

dispy-3.16 package includes files for both Python 2.7+(under 'py2' directory) and Python 3.1+ (under 'py3' directory). Earlier releases had two separate packages for these versions.
