If there is a Squeak pimp then there has to be a Python Pimp - PP (tm) - too.
Many of the GUI applications you see people talking about for the IT have Python driven front ends - Canola2 is an...

Much has been said about the repo issues; despite having joked that the repos are probably hosted on a refurbished N800 using stolen 802.11b bandwidth from an aging neighbour, I'm more interested in...
