[ANNOUNCE] pypt-offline 0.7.0 Released

Hi,

After quite some time, I'm happy to announce a new release of pypt-offline.

Some of the quick features are:

• Offline Bug Report support - Users can now also have information about what packages contain bug reports. [Debian Only]
• Colored Output - Full colored output. [ Support on Windows is through WConio]
• Better support for threads
• Many new options added

I've now started using Mercurial along with SF's SVN which can be viewed at
[1] and [2]

I've also put up a video at [3] explaining how pypt-offline works.

pypt-offline can be downloaded from:

What is pypt-offline?

pypt-offline is an Offline Package Manager for distributions based on Debian. It can allow a user using a Debian distribution with no internet connection to be able to update/upgrade his box with the help of another box running Windows/Linux/Mac

A recent article from Ars [4] was informative enough to show how many countries still don't have [or is very expensive] a proper internet connection.

I hope pypt-offline will be helpful to people who are willing to enjoy the powerful features of Debian but aren't yet able to do so because of internet connectivity.

Feedback welcome.
