I've been toying with the idea of writing a web frontend for BitTorrent for a while now (Grok looks like a likely contender for that) but since the 'official' python based implementation of BitTorrent is simply much too inefficient I had to first come up with a Python library to some other BitTorrent implementation. In the end, I wrote my own library for the highly commendable Transmission client. And after some clean-up and polish work today, I'm happy to announce a release candidate.

The README, the documentation and the tests live all in the same document and the whole thing should be pretty straightforward to use. I'm curious, as to whether some other pythonistas might find this useful, too. We'll see.
