pyannodex 0.7.2 Release
-------------------------
pyannodex is a set of Python bindings for the libannodex library, which
provides a simple way to read and write Annodex media using Python.
Annodex is an open standards based technology that extends the World
Wide Web's hyperlinking, searching, and compositing infrastructure to
time-continuous data, enabling video surfing, searching for clips of
audio and video files using ordinary Web search engines, and
on-the-fly composition of a video on a Web server from previously
annodexed clips. For more information on Annodex, see
http://www.annodex.net/
This release is available as a source tarball at:
http://benno.id.au/code/pyannodex/pyannodex-0.7.2.tar.gz
This release fixes bugs, binds more of the 0.7 libannodex and adds anxinfo.py.
