Python Stuff
Some interesting new Python tools found on the Daily Python-URL:
Dave Kuhlman has written a package to provide support for the Amazon.com web services API (both SOAP and XML/HTTP).
dnspython is a toolkit for making DNS queries, written by the guys at Nominum for use in testing the BIND 9 server. That makes it quite likely that it will be of high quality.
msnp is an open-source implementation of Microsoft's MSN Messenger protocol. Unfortunately, it (like every other non-Microsoft implementation out there) doesn't support the Exchange Instant Messaging (XIM) protocol yet.
