I am still active here, and I am still working on pybeanstalk.  Dustin
is even more active here and does work on pybeanstalk as well.  There
have been more bug reports to me in the past week than in the entire
time pybeanstalk has been in existence, so I think more people are
starting to use it too.  I just left the job where it was being used
in production (I worked with jeremy  - aka jmj), but am planning on
using it again in the new job :).

The reason the activity on pybeanstalk is relatively low is mainly a
lack of problems with it, and low demand for new features. We recently
added a twisted client tho :)

As for a "which is better" type question (which you didnt ask, but
sort of implied with the muddied waters comment ), it really depends
on what the plan is.  Andreas' client is particularly nice for rapid
developing (no need to install the client, just drop it somewhere) and
is 'good enough'* for most simple clients (e.g. those where blocking I/
O is desired or ok).

As it stands, I am always looking for feedback/patches/help so feel
free to write me, or post a bug, or ask here.  I'll usually respond
much quicker, but as jmj said, I'm just coming off the holiday.

Regards
Erich

* good enough means works, but without the tricks (and overhead) of my
client for nonblocking I/O
