I made a (small) patch to PoPy so that it supports the numeric type. Here it is: $ diff PoPymodule.c.org PoPymodule.c 393a394,396
/* 20.11.2000 by Perry */ case PG_NUMERIC: /* 20.11.2000 by Perry */
$ diff PoPymodule.h.org PoPymodule.h 78a79,81
/* 20.11.2000 by Perry */ #define PG_NUMERIC NUMERICOID /* 20.11.2000 by Perry */
where can we communicate these changes ? On Fri, 24 Nov 2000, Federico Di Gregorio wrote:
Dear PoPy and ZPoPyDA users,
last days, a lots of stuff happened here at MIXAD LIVE. the most important to you is that source code for the programs is not in our cvs server anymore and the home page was moved to the official Zope site[1]. To make it short, thierry and eric decided to not work for MIXAD LIVE anymore.
so, what will change for you PoPy users? hopefully nothing... we'll continue to submit patches (we are using the product a lot) and to host the mailing list (unless they wants to move it away.) i will personally keep on packaging PoPy and ZPoPyDA for the Debian distribution. we also want to transfer to thierry the copyright of all the work done by us on the programs, to give him total freedom. i think PoPy and ZPoPyDA will grow better and better in the future.
what can i say more? maybe "good luck" to them and "keep on hacking"...
