About

This standalone variant is intended to be compatible with Python 2.4 and 2.5, and will draw it’s fixes/improvements from python-trunk.
This package would not be possible if not for the contributions of not only the current maintainers but all of the contributors to the original pyprocessing package listed here
Also it is a fork of the multiprocessin backport package by Christian Heims.
It includes the no-execv patch contributed by sbt.
And the Pool improvements previously located in Celery.
