Hello World,
I'm pleased to announce version 1.0.7 of rJSmin.
About rJSmin
============
rJSmin is a javascript minifier written in python. The minifier is based
on the semantics of jsmin.c by Douglas Crockford.
The module is a re-implementation aiming for speed, so it can be used at
runtime (rather than during a preprocessing step). Usually it produces
the same results as the original jsmin.c. It differs in the following
ways:
- there is no error detection: unterminated string, regex and comment
literals are treated as regular javascript code and minified as such.
- Control characters inside string and regex literals are left
untouched; they are not converted to spaces (nor to \n)
- Newline characters are not allowed inside string and regex literals,
except for line continuations in string literals (ECMA-5).
- "return /regex/" is recognized correctly.
- "+ +" and "- -" sequences are not collapsed to "++" or "--"
- Newlines before ! operators are removed more sensibly
- rJSmin does not handle streams, but only complete strings. (However,
the module provides a "streamy" interface).

MacroPy 1.0.0 (https://github.com/lihaoyi/macropy) has been released on PyPI. 1.0.0 is a landmark release of MacroPy which means:
The core engine and bundled macros are looking more-or-less as they should. There will still be changes happening and bugs being fixed, but architecturally I'm pretty happy where they are now.
The nightly break-all-the-things backwards-incompatible changes are over. Changes will be properly batched up into point releases from now on, with changelists.
Development should now take place in the dev branch, with only numbered releases being merged into master. This means that people going to the github will see the docs for a stable, point release instead of the in-flux dev version.
There's now a mailing list/google group (this one!) so it should be easier to ask questions or just talk about things.
There are still a number of things that I would like to add to MacroPy, but I think that as of now the thing MacroPy needs most is feedback from people actually using it (both using the bundled macros and writing their own) to its future direction. As of this release, the previously ridiculously-in-flux rate of development (which I have received emails about, and which means a bunch of people are using various commits from Github) will slow down.
This means if you are:
Waiting for a chance to try out the bundled macros (e.g. case classes), now is the chance to do so, as you can be sure they won't shift suddenly under your feet. Functionality may be added, and things may change in backwards-incompatible ways, but those changes should be documented for each point release.
Wanting to try writing your own macros, now is the time. With hygienic quasiquotes and the host of tools provided for macro-writers to use, I'm quite happy with how writing macros feels right now.
Using some old, random snapshot, waiting for the dust to settle before bothering to upgrade (for fear of being left behind yet again) the dust has basically settled by this point, and there are a bunch of nice goodies[1] to be had!
Looking forward to any feedback =)

[1] Things that 1.0.0 provides that whatever earlier version of MacroPy you're using probably doesn't
- Hygienic Quasiquotes, along with a reasonably-nice hygiene strategy
- Caching macro-expanded files .pycs for performance
- Exporting the source-tree with all macros pre-expanded
- A nicer internal architecture, allowing macros to register pre/post-processing hooks that operate on entire files before/after expansion
- Dozens of small bug-fixes and tweaks

vulture - Find dead code
========================
vulture finds unused classes, functions and variables in Python code.
This helps you cleanup and find errors in your programs. If you run it
on both your library and test suite you can find untested code.
Due to Python's dynamic nature it is impossible to find all dead code
for a static code analyzer like vulture, because it ignores scopes and
scans only token names. Additionally some dynamic items that are not
explicitly mentioned in the code may be incorrectly reported as dead code.
Download
========
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/vulture
Features
========
- Fast: Uses static code analysis
- Lightweight: Only one module
- Complements pyflakes and has the same output syntax
- Supports Python 2.6, 2.7 and 3.x
News
====
* Ignore unused variables starting with an underscore.
* Show warning for syntax errors instead of aborting directly.
* Print warning if a file cannot be found.
