Although the standard library in Python is great, there are undoubtedly some great packages available from 3rd parties, and I've encountered a few almost by accident. However, I don't know how a user would become aware of many of these. http://pypi.python.org/pypi/ presumably lists most of the decent ones, but there's a lot there and little indication as to quality or popularity - great if you know exactly what you need, but not so great for just browsing. I'd love to have some way of finding out what hidden gems are out there in the Python world which could make my development a lot easier. Any suggestions?
