[Barthelemy D. <ba...@us...>]

Py4J 0.5 has just been released!

This release includes the following new (and great) features:

- Import packages (e.g., java_import(gateway.jvm, 'java.io.*'))
- Filter the help content (e.g., gateway.help(obj,'get*Foo*Bar'))
- Automatically convert Python collections (list, set, dictionary) to 
Java collections.
- Py4J Eclipse update site: http://py4j.sourceforge.net/py4j_eclipse

I invite you to take a look at the 0.5 change log:

*About Py4J*
Py4J enables Python programs running in a Python interpreter to 
dynamically access Java objects in a Java Virtual Machine. Methods are 
called as if the Java objects resided in the Python interpreter and Java 
collections can be accessed through standard Python collection methods. 
Py4J also enables Java programs to call back Python objects. Py4J is 
distributed under the BSD license.
