The only warning I'd like to make is that the xappy API isn't yet stable, and in particular the FieldAction stuff is likely to be redesigned shortly (I'll send a summary of my thoughts on what I want to do with this, and why, to this list in a bit, to ensure I get the interface right this time). I'm hoping to have the API stable in a couple of weeks, though. From a quick peruse of the pypi page, I see that it exports the FieldAction style interface, so you might want to add a note that this is liable to change in the near future. More on this when I get a chance to write up my plans properly. For reference, I hope to make a 0.6 release of xappy in the next two weeks, including a reworking of the field action interface. I'll then work towards the 0.7 release, and at the 0.7 release I expect to declare the API stable.(Continue reading)
