and use logging without risk of circular import. Only subpackage that imports from debug is bitmessageqt - because it also uses debug.resetLogging(). Instead of from debug import logger is now recommended to use: import logging logger = logging.getLogger('default') All subclasses of StoppableThread now have a logger attribute. All threading related stuff except for set_thread_name() was moved from helper_threading to network.threads. Fixed two my mistakes from previous edit of debug in a1a8d3a: - logger.handlers is not dict but iterable - sys.excepthook should be set unconditionally
PyBitmessage
Bitmessage is a P2P communication protocol used to send encrypted messages to another person or to many subscribers. It is decentralized and trustless, meaning that you need-not inherently trust any entities like root certificate authorities. It uses strong authentication, which means that the sender of a message cannot be spoofed. BM aims to hide metadata from passive eavesdroppers like those ongoing warrantless wiretapping programs. Hence the sender and receiver of Bitmessages stay anonymous.
Development
Bitmessage is a collaborative project. You are welcome to submit pull requests although if you plan to put a non-trivial amount of work into coding new features, it is recommended that you first describe your ideas in the separate issue.
