pip search watchdog
Shows us that latest version is 0.6 (released 2012-03-18 -> http://pypi.python.org/pypi/watchdog)
There are many things that is changed in the code since then:

How about releasing a new version so that pepople don't report stuff allready done.

Okey.
If someone want's the newest snapshot version from GIT. Bleeding edge with the newest commits:
https://github.com/gorakhargosh/watchdog/zipball/master
Then to install:
 python setup.py install

PS. remember to uninstall previous installs
   pip uninstall watchdog

The newest snapshot seems to fix the memory leakage that bugged the hell out of me.
If you create and destroy a watchdog in a loop, each time memory is taken and not released.
However in newest snapshot this does not occour.

I'm thinking it's this commit that did it for me. Commited by takoi (Thank you!):
