Description Fabio Rossi 2011-01-14 18:33:51 UTC

The under development 1.0 version will have many interesting features:

    * Support for libusb 0.1, libusb 1.0 and openusb.
    * Easier API to deal with.
    * Support for custom backends.
    * Isochronous transfer type.
    * 100% written in Python through ctypes module.
    * Supported by any Python version >= 2.4.
    * Backward compatility with 0.x version. 

Despite the alpha state the new version is pretty functional and is strongly recommended by the author as stated here
