Roundup Issue Tracker release 0.7.12
by Richard Jones May 2, 2005

May 2, 2005

Roundup is a simple-to-use and -install issue-tracking system with command-line, web and e-mail interfaces. It is based on the winning design from Ka-Ping Yee in the Software Carpentry "Track" design competition. 0.7.12 is a bug fix release: - handle capitalisation of class names in text hyperlinking (sf bug 1101043) - quote full-text search text in URL generation - fixed problem migrating mysql databases - fix search_checkboxes macro (sf patch 1113828) - fix bug in date editing in Metakit - allow suppression of search_text in indexargs_form (sf bug 1101548) - hack to fix some anydbm export problems (sf bug 1081454) - ignore AutoReply messages (sf patch 1085051) - fix ZRoundup syntax error (sf bug 1122335) - fix RDBMS clear() so it resets all class itemid counters If you're upgrading from an older version of Roundup you *must* follow the "Software Upgrade" guidelines given in the maintenance documentation. Roundup requires python 2.1.3 or later for correct operation. To give Roundup a try, just download (see below), unpack and run:: python demo.py Source and documentation is available at the website: http://roundup.sourceforge.net/ Release Info (via download page): http://sourceforge.net/projects/roundup Mailing lists - the place to ask questions: http://sourceforge.net/mail/?group_id=31577 About Roundup ============= Roundup manages a number of issues (with flexible properties such as "description", "priority", and so on) and provides the ability to: (a) submit new issues, (b) find and edit existing issues, and (c) discuss issues with other participants. The system will facilitate communication among the participants by managing discussions and notifying interested parties when issues are edited. One of the major design goals for Roundup that it be simple to get going. Roundup is therefore usable "out of the box" with any python 2.1+ installation. It doesn't even need to be "installed" to be operational, though a disutils-based install script is provided. It comes with two issue tracker templates (a classic bug/feature tracker and a minimal skeleton) and seven database back-ends (anydbm, bsddb, bsddb3, sqlite, metakit, mysql and postgresql).

WebStack 0.9
by Paul Boddie May 1, 2005

May 1, 2005

Announcing release 0.9 of WebStack - a common API for Python Web applications. Applications written using the WebStack API can be deployed on the following servers and frameworks: BaseHTTPRequestHandler, CGI, Jython/Java Servlet API, mod_python, Twisted, Webware, WSGI and Zope 2. It should therefore be possible to develop applications and to run them with a single command using Python's standard library server modules, then to deploy them alongside other applications in more sophisticated environments when this becomes necessary or desirable. The PyPI entry for WebStack is here: http://www.python.org/pypi?%3Aaction=search&name=WebStack The public Web page for WebStack is here: http://www.boddie.org.uk/python/WebStack.html Since the last release, some introductory documentation has been added and some general improvements made to the stability and quality of the package. Have fun! Paul
