    openpyxl 1.6.1 is out !

    First post-babies release, this is a “pull requests integration” release, plus a few fixes (including the infamous race-condition fix that was omitted in 1.5.8). A huge effort has been put over several months to make this version work on 2.x and 3.x flavors of Python, and except a few broken tests (due to an incompatible […]

    Apologies to all the people who were awaiting for some openpyxl news, my wife and I have been quite busy those last months 😉 Meet Dorian and Gabriel, my two “first borns”. They are in an excellent shape, and their parents as well (well, as much as someone who didn’t sleep a full night for […]

    Converting an SQLite database to Access

    After looking for two hours after a tool able to perform such a conversion for a reasonable price, I found a free solution to my customer request: You need Windows, but it works fine in a virtual machine (such as Virtualbox) if you’re on a Mac or Linux/BSD You will also need MS Access installed […]

    What I learned from game developpment

    A decade ago, while I was finishing my master’s degree, I also started developing games with a few friends.
