I'd like to humbly announce that I've written a pre-pre-alpha Python module for working with the WorldCat Search API and the xID APIs. The code needs a fair amount of work, namely unit tests and documentation. I've released the code under the GPL. The module, called "worldcat," is available from the Python Package Index at <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/worldcat/>. You can also checkout a copy of the code from my Subversion repository at <http://svn.matienzo.org/public/python/worldcat/>. Mark A.
