njr 3.0

Finally upgraded PyDS to 0.7.2; so far, nothing has broken. From the PyDS-Dev list I had been led to believe I’d have to redo all my templates. So far, so good; here goes a publish…

Looks like PyDS no longer likes me disabling the TopicExchange or Aggregator tools; when I try to publish, I get:

Background thread exception NameMapper.NotFound: aggregatorException instance __dict__: {‘args’: (‘aggregator’,)}
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/lib/python2.3/site-packages/PyDS/Tool.py[1300] in thunk

and

It also seems that PyDS is escaping my embedded HTML tags, or I would have put

 around the above. Weird.

Since I now have a decent weblog editor, and the semester is over tomorrow, I'll start posting a bit more.
