  • Something new in django_zsutils

    Posted on Aug. 30, 2008 at 14:37 +0200 Tagged with , , ,

    The first big change in my "little collection of Django-related stuff" is a new folder structure. This was necessary because for some modules I just want to have some sort of unit-testing going on, and with the old structure this would just have been a total mess.

  • GitHub needs HTTP cloning support

    Lately I've been in need for some simple client-server solutions that do specific jobs like transcoding a video using mencoder or simply adding an AVI container to a FLV videostream and MP3 audiostream. So I started taking a close look at the Twisted framework for Python ...
