python-ctypes is a python module to create and manipulate C data types in Python, and to call functions in dynamic link libraries/shared dlls. It allows wrapping these libraries in pure Python.

dnspython is a DNS toolkit for Python. It supports almost all record
types. It can be used for queries, zone transfers,
and dynamic updates. It supports TSIG authenticated messages and EDNS0.

dnspython provides both high and low level access to DNS. The high level classes
perform queries for data of a given name, type, and class, and return an answer
set. The low level classes allow direct manipulation of DNS zones, messages,
names, and records.

dnspython originated at Nominum where it was developed to facilitate the testing
of DNS software. Nominum has generously allowed it to be open sourced under a
BSD-style license.

Kid is a simple Python based template language for generating and transforming XML vocabularies. Kid was spawned as a result of a kinky love triangle between XSLT, TAL, and PHP. We believe many of the best features of these languages live on in Kid with much of the limitations and complexity stamped out (well, eventually :).

Templates are compiled to native Python byte-code and may be imported and used like normal Python modules.

matplotlib is a python 2D plotting library which produces publication
quality figures in a variety of hardcopy formats and interactive
environments across platforms. matplotlib can be used in python
scripts, the python and ipython shell (ala matlab or mathematica), web
application servers, and six graphical user interface toolkits.

Stateful programmatic web browsing, after Andy Lester's Perl module
WWW::Mechanize.

The library is layered: mechanize.Browser (stateful web browser),
mechanize.UserAgent (configurable URL opener), plus urllib2 handlers.

Features include: ftp:, http: and file: URL schemes, browser history,
high-level hyperlink and HTML form support, HTTP cookies, HTTP-EQUIV and
Refresh, Referer [sic] header, robots.txt, redirections, proxies, and Basic and
Digest HTTP authentication. mechanize's response objects are (lazily-)
.seek()able and still work after .close().

Much of the code originally derived from Perl code by Gisle Aas (libwww-perl),
Johnny Lee (MSIE Cookie support) and last but not least Andy Lester
(WWW::Mechanize). urllib2 was written by Jeremy Hylton.

nose provides an alternate test discovery and running process for unittest, one
that is intended to mimic the behavior of py.test as much as is reasonably
possible without resorting to magic. By default, nose will run tests in files
or directories under the current working directory whose names include "test".

nose also supports doctest tests and may optionally provide a test coverage
report.

psycopg2 is a PostgreSQL database adapter for the Python programming
language. psycopg2 was written with the aim of being very small and fast,
and stable as a rock.

psycopg2 is different from the other database adapter because it was
designed for heavily multi-threaded applications that create and destroy
lots of cursors and make a conspicuous number of concurrent INSERTs or
UPDATEs. psycopg2 also provide full asycronous operations and support
for coroutine libraries.

pyinotify is a Python module for watching filesystems changes. By its design
pyinotify can be used for any kind of fs monitoring.

pyinotify relies on a recent Linux Kernel feature (merged in kernel 2.6.13)
called inotify. inotify is an event-driven notifier, its notifications are
exported from kernel space to user space. The raw interface of inotify is
compounded of three system calls. pyinotify binds these system calls and
provides an implementation on top of them offering a generic and abstract way
to use inotify with Python. Pyinotify doesn't requires much detailed knowledge
of inotify. Moreover, it only needs few statements for initializing, watching,
handling (eventually trough a new separate thread), and processing events
notifications through subclassing. The only things to know is the path of items
to watch, the kind of events to monitor and the actions to execute on these
notifications.

Note: pyinotify requires Python 2.3 and above, and Linux 2.6.13 at least.

pytz brings the Olson tz database into Python. This library allows
accurate and cross platform timezone calculations using Python 2.3 or
higher. It also solves the issue of ambiguous times at the end of
daylight savings, which you can read more about in the Python Library
Reference (datetime.tzinfo).

rdiff-backup backs up one directory to another, possibly over a
network. The target directory ends up a copy of the source directory,
but extra reverse diffs are stored in a special subdirectory of that
target directory, so you can still recover files lost some time ago.
The idea is to combine the best features of a mirror and an incremental
backup. rdiff-backup also preserves subdirectories, hard links, dev
files, permissions, uid/gid ownership, and modification times. Also,
rdiff-backup can operate in a bandwidth efficient manner over a pipe,
like rsync. Thus you can use rdiff-backup and ssh to securely back a
hard drive up to a remote location, and only the differences will be
transmitted. Finally, rdiff-backup is easy to use and settings have
sensical defaults.

Squid is a caching proxy for the Web supporting HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, and more. It reduces bandwidth and improves response times by caching and reusing frequently-requested web pages. Squid has extensive access controls and makes a great server accelerator.

Squidview is an interactive console program which monitors
and displays squid logs in a nice fashion, and may then go
deeper with searching and reporting functions.

If you don't know what squid is or does this program is probably not for you.

To use squidview you must at least have read access to squid's
access.log file. You may need to see your administrator for this.
Squidview uses this text log file for all operations.
It does not generate its own database for tasks

This project aims at providing stunnel packages.

The stunnel program is designed to work as an SSL encryption wrapper
between a remote client and the local (inetd-startable) or remote
server. The concept is that by having non-SSL aware daemons running on
your system, you can easily set them to communicate with clients over a
secure SSL channel. Stunnel can be used to add SSL functionality to
commonly used inetd daemons, such as POP-2, POP-3, and IMAP servers,
without any changes to the program code.

innotop connects to a MySQL database server and retrieves information from it,
then displays it in a manner similar to the UNIX top program. innotop uses
the data from SHOW VARIABLES, SHOW GLOBAL STATUS, SHOW FULL PROCESSLIST, and
SHOW ENGINE INNODB STATUS, among other things.

ip4 and ip4r are types that contain a single IPv4 address and a range of
IPv4 addresses respectively. They can be used as a more flexible,
indexable version of the cidr type.

cronolog is a simple filter program that reads log file entries from standard input and writes each entry to the output file specified by a filename template and the current date and time. When the expanded filename changes, the current file is closed and a new one opened. cronolog is intended to be used in conjunction with a Web server, such as Apache, to split the access log into daily or monthly logs.

See http://cronolog.org/ for more info.
