This has been an interesting experience. It honestly has. I have learned a lot more about using Python than I originally did and also doing some interesting things with IRC. my partner, mstubinis, who is a pretty awesome hacker, is responsible for writing the greater majority of our code while I was working on more of the management side of things, documentation and packaging. This project would probably not have gone nearly as well without all the work Mst put in.
That said, packaging is really weird. As I am not really fluent in python, using it in the shell is still a little weird to me and the errors that it throws make it a little hard to discern. It has certainly been a humbling experience as it shows me how little I know when it comes to my own field. I think the greatest challenge has been trying to keep up with everything that has been going on as far as the project is concerned. The time frame for the project really made this interesting. I would never expect something like this to be done in five weeks.
The current crossroads I am stuck at is getting the project up and hosted on pypi. I have everything setup and ready to be put up, (although as it isn't uploading properly, it means something is missing...somewhere).
At current, I am testing out different methods of getting the file uploaded onto Pypi. I hope this whole process will go much smoother later...
