A brief follow-up on gcaff. I've tracked down the critical issue (many thanks Adam for the bug report) and released gcaff-0.2. This release also fixes some other bugs and does more sanity checking up front. To install:
pip install gcaff or download the source (https://github.com/frasertweedale/gcaff) and run the setup script.
