I wrote some code in omniORBpy that maintains a cache of thread states for callbacks, and copes with Python 2.3's new GIL access functions. You can see the code from SourceForge's CVS. Apologies for the ridiculously long URLs... http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/omniorb/omniORBpy/modules/At… http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/omniorb/omniORBpy/modules/At… Cheers, Duncan. -- -- Duncan Grisby -- -- duncan(a)grisby.org -- -- http://www.grisby.org --

Sounding like there are quite a few pythoneers down in the SW....my latest Python system(s) is/are down that way at the moment....in sunny devon...well i assume they are anyway...that is where the test house the customer is using is located so I assume they are still there... Anyone else out there doing much in the way of Python Extensions/Embedding? As that is my main area of interest so wouldn't mind swapping notes with anyone who has done some... -- Phil Hornby Accutest Ltd. (01457) 891121 mailto::phil.hornby@accutest.co.uk

hi all, ive been developing a couple of projects in python - mostly using twisted. I'm in the Bristol area - itd be great to meet up with any other pythoneers - time willing. The Farm pub in St Werburghs might be a nice place if the weathers still nice. If anyone in the west country is interested please get in touch, cheers ryan.
