Unfortunately, no, not much progress. Not long after your first email
I started playing with pydev and made an initial attempt to integrate
pydev's validation support. However, the pydev code differs quite a
bit from other language plugins I've worked with so far (what I
wouldn't give to have them all work like the jdt), so it takes a good
amount of time to dig through the code to determine how to utilize
their features in a non-gui environment. At the time I didn't really
have the time or the patience to keep digging through it so I put it
to the side to revisit later.
I'm still planning on replacing eclim's use of rope with pydev, but
I'm just not sure when.
