Could you add this tiny piece of software--it allows

This email is to inform you of release '2.2.1c1' of 'Python' through
freshmeat.net. All URLs and other useful information can be found at
http://freshmeat.net/projects/python/

The changes in this release are as follows:
Many bugfixes from the 2.2 release; this is a release candidate. 

Project description:
Python is an interpreted, interactive, object-oriented programming
language. It combines remarkable power with very clear syntax, and
isn't difficult to learn. It has modules, classes, exceptions, very
high level data types, and dynamic typing. There are interfaces to
many system calls and libraries, as well as to various windowing
systems (Tk, Mac, MFC, GTK+, Qt, wxWindows). Newbuilt-in modules are
easily written in C or C++. Python is also usable as an extension
language for applications that need a programmable interface.

Summary: add HTB QOS

Initial Comment:
http://luxik.cdi.cz/~devik/qos/htb/htbman.htm

HTB is meant as a more understandable and intuitive 
replacement for the CBQ qdisc in Linux. Both CBQ and 
HTB help you to control the use of the outbound 
bandwidth on a given link. Both allow you to use one 
physical link to simulate several slower links and to 
send different kinds of traffic on different simulated 
links. In both cases, you have to specify how to 
divide the physical link into simulated links and how 
to decide which simulated link to use for a given 
packet to be sent.
