The recent changelog entries are below my signature. The package has been around for two years next month, and does exactly what you expect it to do - no more, no less. You can find the package at: https://github.com/josiahcarlson/rpqueue/ https://pypi.python.org/pypi/rpqueue Please CC me on any replies if you have any questions or comments. Thank you, - Josiah #----------------------------------- 0.21 ------------------------------------ [changed] where available, rpqueue will now use Lua to move delayed tasks from the time-based priority queue to fifo queues. This should reduce overhead in all cases, and should drastically improve performance for those that use large numbers of delayed tasks. [changed] the version number is now PEP 386/440 compliant. [added] this changelog that will document updates/changes/improvements in an easily referenced location. [fixed] thanks to https://github.com/dmaust , rpqueue added a missing 'redis' requirement.
