[CentralOH] More Python stuff, was: cron reg] centos-7.first.owlriver.net> (fwd)

[R P Herrold]

More as to meeting with Jim Prior:

I mentioned the IB Python client a moment ago, and part of my 
regimen as a developer, is a 'cron' based 'pull' of an 
upstream against which I do not have direct commit rights.  
This produces an email to me, to see 'what happened on the 
overights'

Here is a sample email.  The Pythonic part of merge was one of 
which I was aware that had not yet upstreamed, extending a new 
feature into the mainline code.  The code itself is kind of a 
pretty demonstration of how simple an extension is, in what is 
a rather old (over a decade of legacy code to support) and 
rather fat and 'hard to get a grip on' codebase [The IB TWS 
API is a very complex model, with Pub/Sub, as well as one-off 
ad hoc queries, on any of a hundred different trading 
exchanges, and literally every security which might be or was 
traded in a financial market]
