[IPython-dev] Let's get 0.13 released...

[Carl Smith]

but it isn't straight forwards. I don't know much about IPython's
internals, but I guess there's no better time to start learning.

That shell server looks interesting. Nice one for pointing us to it. It's a
handy resource. PA do some really cool stuff with it.
