The Python-SIMPL tutorial is at: http://www.icanprogram.com/06py/lesson1/lesson1.html
Several lessons (3,4, 6 &7) have been enhanced to include examples of Python apps interfacing to the cloud housed on a Linode. The open source SIMPL toolkit provides a very lean Send/Receive/Reply (QNX style) messaging library. A SIMPL application consists of 2 or more interacting SIMPL modules. A SIMPL module can be written in any number of supported languages including Python, C, C++, JAVA, Tcl/Tk or PHP. More importantly they can be mixed in any given SIMPL application. Through the use of generic surrogates, SIMPL modules are "naturally" cloud aware often without even a recompile. In this tutorial a SIMPL receiver module (written in C) is exported unchanged to the Linode cloud. Examples of Python modules connecting to this Linode hosted module via the SIMPL TCP/IP surrogates, SIMPL tclSurrogate daemon, and Python-CGI are all illustrated. bob -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
