[Configobj-develop] ConfigObj Beta 4

[Michael F. <mi...@pc...>]

Hello Folks,

Last night I discovered another bug in ConfigObj - this affected
initialising a ConfigObj from an existing ConfigObj. Despite our best
efforts subsections were still been created as references rather than
new sections.

This is now fixed in SVN and I have done a beta 4 release. (Which also
fixes the bug in ``Section.__delitem__``). Hopefully there aren't too
many more surprises to find :-)

Having been ill yesterday I used the time to ponder on using ConfigObj
for data persistence. (The main point being that it generates human
readable/writable files).

You can see the results at :

All the best,
