py

more python goodies, from the people who are working on pypy. py has a test utility, name export control, greenlets, local/remote/svn filesystem access, etc. it also has some channel-based remote execution capability, with no remote-side server installation/maintenance. might make a good light-weight alternative to pyro. utilities for handling code object, too. if i ever do an object caching database with distributed execution, i think this is the way to go. auto api docs based on running instances. cool. definitely the simplest greenlet implementation i've ever seen; i might actually be able to understand and use it. i know pypi has a greenlet module for a coroutine paradigm; i wonder if it's the same. better than the improved generator type of greenlet because you can switch anywhere in the call stack. the tutorials by david beazley are recommended.
