For a while now, I was using some third party IP ranges file lists for some restrictions lists based on country codes.
Long story short those third party sites either died or are not properly detecting IP ranges from certain country codes of my interest. I'm trying to put up my own list. In the process my IP ranges zone files will be available for public use on this site. I'll try to announce any changes to the background logic.
This is my first public publish to PyPi, without further delays, here is the full project description

There is a long time now from my original post on running Django with python 2.6 on cPanel based servers, and as time passed there was some issues while deploying Django in such a way. So I decided to post another post with some updates regarding deployment of any python based scripts trough mod_wsgi and cPanel.
Here is the simple to follow step by step tutorial on howto run latest Django on cpanel powered servers with python 2.6, virtual env and mod_wsgi.
If you are running cPanel on your server it's most probably a rhel or centos distro, and those will have by default python2.4 installed. You can't just overwrite your python2.4 as many of the system utilities are depended on the python2.4 So what we will do is install an alternate python 2.6 and setup our server to run Django instances with python2.6
While doing a little coding I tried to find some tail -f class in python that will recognize when file that we tailing is been truncated. All I found was some tail -f classes that brakes on file truncate or rotate.
