I am extremely pleased to announce the 1.0 release of Premix, an easy to use Python wrapper around the Best Buy Remix APIs. It is compatible with Google App Engine.

Changes in this version includes updated tests, the addition of extend() to add an ‘OR’ complement filter(), and new convenience properties on results, next and previous. Version 1.0 is backwards compatible with previous 0.9 versions.

The project’s main repository and wiki are hosted on bitbucket.org.

Curt, Jerry and Thomas really show their enthusiasm for the platform. They recognize the constraints and limitations but see them more as rules to follow rather than barriers.

If you are curious about the t-shirt Thomas is wearing, it’s the most recent The Skullcranes attire.

I am pleased to announce the 0.1 release of Gaegene, a collection of general purpose models, utilities, and mix-in classes to help develop Google App Engine web apps.  It was created while developing Giftag for Best Buy.

The 0.1 release contains two modular apps to help simplify two common design patterns, counters and slugs.  Future releases will also help with images, pagination, and tagging.

The project’s main repository and wiki, as well as a test/example webapp are hosted on bitbucket.org.
