I'm back from holidays and I had just added a new plugin to jBrout, to be able to share pictures thru upnp/dlna devices (upnp av). It works only on *nix platforms, because it uses the marvellous ushare, which is available on all good platforms ;-). So I can watch my recent pictures on the TV in my sofa, thru the wonderful freebox mediaplayer which is a UPNP AV compliant device ;-). Sweet.

I like this thing. I had changed the purpose of my robot maison@appspot.com. Now, when added to a wave as a participant, it will post all blips on http://maison.appspot.com ;-) So blips are now really public ... and can be seen by the rest of the world ;-).
Perhaps you will fall in love on what's happening in GoogleWave. A lot of interesting discussions ;-).
It's just a kind of concept, for fun purpose only !

Amazing ... Today I had received my google wave account, and started to play with wavelets, blips and all these newer things ;-). Really amazing. I really think that it could be the next big thing in the social/communication side of the web.
It takes me one hour to developp a robot (maison@appspot.com) which replace the word 'fuck' by 'f**k' in all the blips of a wave ... amazing. (Edit : my robot has generated a lot of blips in a wave (wavesandbox.com!w+UyA_PnlT%A) yesterday night ... really funny)
Now, I can't really think all things that could be available in a such system. But as always: APIs from google are just perfects ... they fit my brain. Every thing can be done using python and GAE : just perfect.
EDIT : A really good introduction to present what google wave is (in french)

Apparently nothing has changed (may be some disturbance now). But a lot of changes was made. I had just migrate all files+models from one appspot-id to another one (At the beginning I couldn't choose "manatlan" as appspot-id ?! Now it works ?!). Files were easily migrated (thanks to gae). But models were more complex, thanks to AEX, it helps me a lot ;-)
BTW, flux.manatlan.com was a subdomain of my old appspot-id (it was very dependant on this website). Now it has its own appspot-id and works alone (with its own cron, taskqueue, and own quotas). It's in beta stage now (use at your own risks).
So, this is the first post (a test ;-)) on my new appspot-id.

After my preceding post, I'd started a new/better totem plugin called flux. In fact, it's a plugin which is plugin'able and provides a lot of features in one plugin. Mainly easy access to live streams, to rss/atom videos/youtube/dailymotion, to audios and videos of well-known french podcasts (canal+/radios). Sure, this plugin is mainly for french people, so the page is in french language. It's the initial public release, but I use it for long times now ;-). Hope it will enjoy french people, like me ;-)
UPDATE 2009/06/29 : just released 0.2 version ;-)

Today, I've played with totem and its plugins. I have seen that they can be done in python/gtk. After hacking an existing one, I've built 2 plugins (in a very short time, less than 30 minutes). The first one is for listening some popular french radios. The second is for watching some streams of canal+, the 'zapping'.
I think I will made them better in the near future because it's easy and fun to develop them. I had never liked totem before, but it's pretty cool to let users(developers) improve it with plugins.
UPDATE 2009/06/16 : Now, these plugins are discontinuited. You should find them in a better totem plugin, named flux

Just a post to tell that I've added a simple tool to share files with friends : yserv ! In fact, I use it for many years, and I really think it can be useful for someone else.
In my case, I use it to send files/folders when I am on instant messaging services. I just drag'n'drop files on my shorcut, and my computer act as an httpserver letting my friends download the files. When they finish, I just quit the tool. It's very handy to send files in live. It's a kind of instant-serving.
Hope it could help someone too.
More infos
UPDATE 2009/05/01
Now, yserv is in pypi

In fact, I always asked myself why there was a to_xml() instance method on an entity, without an from_xml() on the model class (the reverse method). If you have an answer, please, don't hesitate : tell me ;-)
So, I tried to make my own from_xml method. And it seems it works pretty good for me (afaik for the models of this website). So I want to share my work, so volunteers could help me to make it better : I take patches, and will maintain it.
My script exposes 2 methods :
- exporte(*objects) : will generate (yield) a xml flow (using the
to_xml()) of all "objects". object can be a Model class, in this case it will query all entities, or object can be some entities.
- importe(objects,file=None,buffer=None,delete=False) : will import in models defined in objects, the xml flow from a file if file is defined, or from a buffer if buffer is defined. 'delete' will make a delete all before importing.
You will find it on the project's page

It's here ! The most awaited feature is here. Now we have cron in GAE. It's a big day !
A cron job will invoke a URL at a given time of day. A URL invoked by cron is subject to the same limits and quotas as a normal HTTP request, including the request time limit.
An application can have up to 20 scheduled tasks.
And better, it was done like in my dream ;-)
Btw, GAE is one year old (happy birthday !), and is now java compliant.
