Louie was created to address all of those issues. Louie *is* pydispatcher, plus eggs, minus the name conflict, plus plugin support, plus a commitment to enhance it even further for projects that adopt it. So I would strongly encourage you to use Louie instead of pydispatcher. You can find it here: http://louie.berlios.de/ -- Patrick K.
