#urwid

[data-pup]

Here are the prototypes for the two main functions behind curses and urwid, respectively. I found the differences to be interesting, prototype size being the most apparent.

Previously, I posted a video by Sean Zicari that had a lot of helpful information in it. When somebody asked about the differences between them, he replied that they have very different ways of thinking, but urwid will ultimately do more for you. I think that makes a lot of sense when you look at what information each library expects to be given when called.

uhh so i spent the last few hours finishing up this: https://github.com/wardi/urwid/pull/67

which is an attempt at making it easier to plug this python console UI library into async event loops

which is a whole lotta yak-shaving originally intended for my irc bot, dywypi

which i will actually work on directly again, someday.

oVirt Node 2.6.1

Node 2.6.1- a very slim firmware-like Fedora for oVirt Node - has been released. This minor release was necessary because our major TUI rework introduced a security hole. Get it here. So whats new about Node 2.6.x? Well, we've got plugins and a new TUI (a new installer TUI will follow shortly). More can be found in the release notes. And whats coming up? It obvious that a "solid core" or this "firmware like"  properties of Node are well suited for other projects as well (think of OpenStack, Gluster, ...) So a near term goal is to dro the oVirt specific bits (like vdsm) to make Node more general and easier to use for other projects. And the new installer shall also land.
