Updated versions of both `ConfigObj <http://www.voidspace.org.uk/ python/configobj.html>`_ and `Validate <http://www.voidspace.org.uk/ python/validate.html>`_ are now available. * `ConfigObj 4.4.0 <http://www.voidspace.org.uk/cgi-bin/voidspace/ downman.py?file=configobj-4.4.0.zip>`_ * `Validate 0.2.3 <http://www.voidspace.org.uk/cgi-bin/voidspace/ downman.py?file=validate.py>`_ **ConfigObj** is a Python module for the simple reading and writing of config files. It has many features, whilst remaining easy to use. With the assistance of **Validate** it can validate a config file against a specification, and convert members to the expected type. Thanks to Nicola Larosa who implemented most of the fixes in this release.
