My apologies if this is a duplicate, I'm having a few email issues at
the moment.
Anyone there? I count no messages on this list for the last four days at
least. Has anyone looked at the latest prototype? Does it do everything
you ever wanted? (somehow I doubt it). Does anyone have suggestions,
bugs, documentation, sample applications or opinions of any type they
wish to share? Or am I talking to myself here?
As an update to my last message, I've tracked down the bug in the
WorldClock sample and am hoping to have a patch available later this
week. As an aside I tried testing this sample under cygwin and it will
not work. There is a known bug with time.timezone() on cygwin python
that causes an incorrect value to be returned and this messes up all of
the delicate calculations. There is a patch on sourceforge for this so
I'm hoping it will get included in Python 2.2 (or at least 2.3). Anybody
else come across platform specific issues that may trip us up?
I've also been looking at Gadfly, initially for inclusion in the
dbBrowser sample application but with a view to using it as one of our
persistence mechanisms. Its looking good but needs a little work at the
Gadfly end (mainly because it uses regex rather than re), any assistance
is, of course, welcome.
Regards,
Andy
