I don't generally like to just copy files into my projects from SVN trunks.
I know it's just one file, but it'd be nice if this was released as a
package to pypi.

Yeah we should do that... Or just release tarballs on this site.  The thing is that
we have Python + JavaScript + JVM.  I think people will want to use the server +
client versions together.

Basically if all tests pass it's ready to release.  There's no other testing possible
:)  So if you are unsure about copying things you could run the tests for now.

I'll think about the release issues... it's a little unique for this project.

I have strong preferences about the release process myself, so I'll just indicate
them. I'd prefer it the tarball worked with at least distutils (or setuptools, your
choice), and thus has a setup.py. I also strongly prefer for the release to be on
pypi, not just a release on this site. I rely on automated tools (buildout) to create
projects from a whole bunch of packages, and they prefer this kind of release (though
it can be made to work with anything). 

I'd also suggest you upload your tarball directly to pypi, as I've had some
frustration with downloading tarballs from sites that pypi just links to (those sites
can go down as well, introducing multiple points of failure. not that I expect
code.google.com to be down a lot, but it's the principle of the thing).

If you need help with the packaging process let me know and I can take a look at it
if you'd like.

Sure, if there is some automatic process that you are relying on that uses PyPI, I
certainly don't mind if you want to check in some scripts and documentation to
standardize this process.  I will review the patches.

As mentioned, the only real release criteria now is that the tests pass, and that
takes like 20 seconds or less. :)

Please coordinate with me about the description and version.  Roughly I think the
Python version feels like a 0.5 release, no?  It's ready to use in a real project, so
it's not 0.1.  On the other hand, we are adding some stuff, like the formatters
conversation you see on the mailing list.  (Although that's not in the core language.)

This would only cover the Python case though.
