Hi Poonam, I’d say you need to cover Agile (Scrum, Extreme Programming, Feature Driven Development) and CMMI for sure, plus maybe Waterfall, Spiral and RUP.

Thanks Siddharta.
This was a good starting point, although I ended up using CherryPy (instead of ToofPy) and Py2Exe (instead of cx_freeze).
I ended up doing something more based on Joseph Jude’s work http://www.jjude.com/index.php/archives/70 - itself inspired by your post here.
Anyway I’ve posted my notes here - http://misunderstandings.wordpress.com/2008/06/26/django-desktop-app/

Siddharth: I agree with you - not the rockstars that matter; but the whole team. I posted about my learnings from IPL too: http://www.jjude.com/index.php/archives/84

Hi Ben, you’re right. Wordpress changes the formatting of some characters like the quotes and dashes to special characters (like curly opening and closing quotes), so when copy-pasting, we need to be a bit careful that the right quotes and dashes are used.

Ok, I found the problem … Beware that if you copy-paste from the instructions in post number 17 that there may be a non-ASCII character hiding in there somewhere

I got FreezePython (cx_freeze) working fine on a hello_world.py program, but when I follow your instructions on a skeleton django project, I get the following error from running FreezePython on mainfile.py:

Module cx_imports from file cx_imports.py has invalid syntax (cx_imports.py, line 3).

That is, the os.environ[] command appears to have invalid syntax. I changed ‘your_project’ to ‘mysite’ everywhere applicable. I’m not sure what else to do!
