    Great job guys, i can only hope one would give python web frameworks the same support that php has through amfphp/sabreamf/weborb, or ruby rails has through railsamf/weborb (nevertheless mentioning java and .net with their support).

    So far python was the one lacking support.
    Following your recommendation i used DjangoAMF, but it has some serialization issues, i would like to know if now pyamf is not so unstable that you would recommend something else ?

    Do you also support pyamf project ?

    Please, some tutorials :D (the first complexity text to a remoting amf implementation that i do is authentication using setCredentials, i guess that is the most important)

    What a huge good news together with recently open-sourced AMF3 Official Specification :)

    Yay!

    @iongion: The goal of PyAMF is to create a robust, stable, spec compliant amf library in Python. We’ll support that as much as possible.

    You can continue using DjangoAMF if you wish, but testers are much appreciated ;)

    Tutorials on the way … watch this space.

  5. @iongion:
    You can find a bunch of examples in the examples section of the repository and the examples wiki page.
