typecheck v0.2.0 released

I just released version 0.2.0 of the typecheck module to the Python Package Index. The module's website has been updated to reflect the new version number and link to the newest build but has not yet been modified to document the changed interface after the merge with Collin's code. He tagged the 0.2.0 version yesterday so we still need to catch up on a couple of minor documentation points.

The new version of the module maintains 90% compatibility with my old API - the only change is that you can no longer elect to not typecheck a parameter; a feature that I hope we will be able to bring back in a subsequent release.

YAXL v0.0.15 released

I just released a maintenance version of YAXL. This release contains a couple of passing test cases that had been waiting for release for a little while. I also fixed an embarrassing bug in the Python Egg distro that screwed up the builtin help.

YAXL's Subversion repository is now public. You can browse version 0.0.15's tag or just snoop around in the trunk to find the bleeding-edge stuff.

New code updates for typecheck

I will be merging the code in my typechecking module with Collin Winter's codebase. The new subversion repository for the continued development of this module is at http://www.ilowe.net/software/typecheck/svn.

We should be releasing a new version shortly with a whole whack of other/new features that Collin has implemented such as return-type checking and logical operators on types (and and or). Look for version 0.2.0 in your local Cheeseshop RSS Feed.
