AFAIK PyFIT is still developed by John Roth, who's, AFAIK gain, also
the original author this FIT port. Fitnesse mailing list [1] is
probably the best place for asking further questions.
If you are interested in acceptance testing frameworks, especially
ones implemented with Python, you may also want to take a look at
Robot Framework [2]. This framework is FIT-like but original
influences come elsewhere. To get an overview of the most important
features, take a look at the Quick Start Guide [3].
I'm the lead developer of Robot Framework so I'm too biased to
objectively compare it to PyFIT or other frameworks. I'd be interested
in hearing comments and feedback from others, though, and promise to
answer questions and otherwise help getting started. I'll probably
also send a bit longer announcement mail to this list soonish
(assuming that such announcements are OK to moderators).
Cheers,
