Hi, all.

pySerial is probably "the solution" for serial port programming.
Physical serial port is dead on PC but USB-to-Serial give it a second
life. Serial port stuff won't interest end users at all. But it is
still used in the EE world and so on. Arduino uses it to upload
programs. Sensors may use serial port to communicate with PC. GSM
Modem also uses serial port to communicate with PC.

Unforunately, pySerial project doesn't seem to have a good state. I
find pySerial + Python 3.3 broken on my machine (Python 2.7 is OK) .
There are unanswered outstanding bugs, PyPI page has 2.6 while SF
homepage still gives 2.5.

Any idea?
