For the first time ever, the PyObjC module has a real web site (the start of one anyway). The implementation is largely a copy of the Fink project's excellent site.. The design and graphics were contributed by Jim Tittsler. The content was compiled from many sources-- Jim's work, Fink, the PyObjC source trees and some original-- by Bill Bumgarner.

On or about this date, an interim release of PyObjC was made available as a disk image that contained the binary module (compatible with Apple's build of Python included with OS X 10.2), a Project Builder project template for building Cocoa applications using Python, and a basic README.

Version 0.7.0 represents a huge step forward over the previous version (0.6.1). Of note, 0.7.0 vastly improved the inter-language messaging mechanism, the bridging of various classes, improved support for features specific to the Foundation and AppKit, support for the Address Book framework, and subclassing of Objective-C classes in Python.

Last release made that used a single dynamically loadable module named 'pyobjc'.
