<!-- Converted from text/plain format -->
<P><FONT SIZE=2>What a big thread! :)<BR>
<BR>
Well, I apologize the way this release was put to the public. This new<BR>
email/announce follows what Quim Gil have proposed. Thanks!<BR>
========================================================<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
I am pleased to announce Python2.5.1 for Maemo - r0.4-11<BR>
<BR>
This new release is available from:<BR>
<A HREF="http://pymaemo.garage.maemo.org">http://pymaemo.garage.maemo.org</A><BR>
<BR>
What's it?<BR>
----------<BR>
Python for Maemo (PyMaemo for short) main objective is to make possible<BR>
to use Python programming language as the scripting and development<BR>
language for Maemo Platform, providing a better alternative for fast<BR>
prototyping and programming in Maemo environment besides the C<BR>
programming language.<BR>
<BR>
Python is for serious programming and to have fun. Python has a nice<BR>
syntax, it's easy to learn and powerful enough for a vast range of<BR>
applications, this is why we choose Python for Maemo.<BR>
<BR>
What's changed?<BR>

<BR>

term we plan to speed up Python using the Python Launcher, improve<BR>
Pluthon (Eclipse<BR>
plugin - <A HREF="http://pluthon.garage.maemo.org">http://pluthon.garage.maemo.org</A>) and Easy Hildon<BR>
(Python-based API to ease the development of applications -<BR>
