=== pyExcelerator === Updated 2009-02-13

This package appears to be no longer under maintenance. As at
2009-02-12, the latest release available on pypi (the Python Package
Index) was 0.6.0a, dated August 2005; the latest release available on
sourceforge was 0.6.3a, dated October 2005; the latest svn revision
was committed in February 2007. An alternative to most of the
pyExcelerator functionality is offered by xlwt (http://pypi.python.org/
pypi/xlwt), which is a fork of pyExcelerator with immediate and
continuing bug fixes and enhancements, and is supported on Python 2.3
to 2.6. The parseXLS functionality has been deleted from xlwt; use
xlrd (http://pypi.python.org/pypi/xlrd) instead. Otherwise something
like your_source_code.replace("pyExcelerator", "xlwt") should be all
that is needed.
