• 3 risks with Agile decision making
• It’s not about the features!

• Scrum Burndown plugin 1.9.2 released!

There are no astonishing new features, this is mainly a compatibility release. The Scrum burndown plugin is currently compatible and tested with Trac 0.10.5, Trac 0.11.1, Python 2.4 and Python 2.5.

• Scrum Burndown plugin 1.9.2 released!

Update: there is a new version of the Burndown plugin!

From this place, I want to thank Sam Bloomquist for all the work he has done to deliver a great plugin for Trac.

• London Wicket Meetup: Wicket 1.5, WiQuery, Brix and more..

• simple syntax for writing services
• comes with client and server built in
• on-demand WSDL generation
• plays well with other SOAP implementations
• services can be deployed as WSGI applications
• easily expose complex data structures
• extensible Message API

The WSDL generation is done via decorators. If you do not know what decorators are, go read this). This makes it possible to write a simple Webservice in a few lines of code:

from soaplib.wsgi_soap import SimpleWSGISoapApp
from soaplib.service import soapmethod
from soaplib.serializers.primitive import String, Integer, Array

class HelloWorldService(SimpleWSGISoapApp):

    @soapmethod(String,Integer,_returns=Array(String))
    def say_hello(self,name,times):
        results = []
        for i in range(0,times):
            results.append('Hello, %s'%name)
        return results
        
if __name__=='__main__':
    from cherrypy._cpwsgiserver import CherryPyWSGIServer
    # this example uses CherryPy2.2
    server = CherryPyWSGIServer(('localhost',7789),HelloWorldService())
    server.start()

This looks way cool and very simple to use! For more information, see the the full dissection of this example. I will try to use this library in one of my current projects.
