As pretty much everyone I know has announced, Python 3.0 is out. Pop your bottles open! Fireworks! What’s more important to end-users though is that third-party libraries are usable with Python 3.0, and not many of them are right now. One particular library has a special place in my heart, and is getting pretty close [...]

For those not paying attention, there are two new Plone releases out. They have been made during the Plone Conference 2008, so some people might have missed this. The good news I want to announce is that the buildout-based Plone Installers for Windows have been updated, and a few bugs have been fixed in the [...]

Jonathan Bowman posted some instructions about how to compile Python-LDAP on Windows, using MingW. His instructions create a shared binary though. I was able to build a static binary in the past, but I have to hunt down my notes about what changes to build a static binary. It is great that someone else was [...]

In case the news didn’t make it to your inbox, Plone 3.0 has been released, with installers for many platforms, including Windows and Mac OS X. Thanks to everyone that contributed to this release!

For the XML heads out there, get rid of your pointy-bracket thirst. The new lxml 1.3.2 release is up on the Python CheeseShop, and I’ve just finished uploading installers for Windows, compiled for Python 2.4 and Python 2.5.

Are people ‘stuck’ on Windows?
I have been asking me this question several times over the last few months. Are people really stuck on Windows? Some minds out there pretend that it is so, but I really have to disagree. I don’t want to convert anyone to using Windows. Nor do I want to argue that some OS is better [...]
