- About
- -----
- `billiard` is a fork of the Python 2.7 `multiprocessing <https://docs.python.org/library/multiprocessing.html>`_
- package. The multiprocessing package itself is a renamed and updated version of
- R Oudkerk's `pyprocessing <https://pypi.org/project/processing/>`_ package.
- This standalone variant draws its fixes/improvements from python-trunk and provides
- additional bug fixes and improvements.
- - This package would not be possible if not for the contributions of not only
- the current maintainers but all of the contributors to the original pyprocessing
- package listed `here <http://pyprocessing.berlios.de/doc/THANKS.html>`_
- - Also it is a fork of the multiprocessing backport package by Christian Heims.
- - It includes the no-execv patch contributed by R. Oudkerk.
- - And the Pool improvements previously located in `Celery`_.
- - Billiard is used in and is a dependency for `Celery`_ and is maintained by the
- Celery team.
- .. _`Celery`: http://celeryproject.org
- Bug reporting
- -------------
- Please report bugs related to multiprocessing at the
- `Python bug tracker <https://bugs.python.org/>`_. Issues related to billiard
