Pytrainer is a tool to log all your sport excursion coming from Garmin devices (focus on ForeRunnner 205 and 305) or GPX (http://www.topografix.com) files. Pytrainer supports GPS track files and displays it in graphs, maps...

This version has huge performance improvements when parsing xml files as well as better integration with Wordpress

After 6 months, here we are a new version of pytrainer. Several bug fixed and also the removal of license issue to become official debian package

1.6.0.7 version is available in the svn repository. Feel free to check it out and report any problem before the official one is released (scheduled to 29.03.2009 if no major issues appear)

We are on our way to update all info related to the project: bug tracking, feature requests, svn repository, wiki... I would just ask for a bit of patience until the work is done.
