I'll split the Python specific parts first (I delayed that too long, already) and get an alioth account. I'll merge the code, then. greetings Torsten - -- Torsten Marek <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ID: A244C858 -- FP: 1902 0002 5DFC 856B F146 894C 7CC5 451E A244 C858 Keyserver: subkeys.pgp.net -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFDX58qfMVFHqJEyFgRAioUAJ4x4zjkzIZsTyBFvzyWTZ3GBNxULQCePogx FHmFo66fZWMCfryxoXXuQRE= =aoDU -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Debtags-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/debtags-devel
