A plug for PySol. My wife is totally non-techno. She doesn't "get" the notions of windows, or minimize/maximize, or clicking on the icon down on the toolbar. But she does get PySol. When I recently upgraded, I had to reinstall Python2.2 in order to use the old PySol binaries (couldn't get the build-from-source to work). Linux and Python got a fan due to PySol. It should be considered a cultural treasure, and if a bit of funding would help keep it rolling into the future, that might be worthwhile. -- Harry George PLM Engineering Architecture -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
