Woo hoo! Some competition. SoniX has been making some super commits to the Jacman source. I've been sorting out the rollback functionality. If the 0.2 release doesn't come out tomorrow, expect it in the next few days! :)
I pity the foo' who try to take on Jacman! Er, I mean, Joao, welcome! Pacman front-ends are great. If you have any questions, drop me a line. Obviously, we're working on different GUI toolkits, but I'd be happy to share my experiences so far.
I have to say I'm torn between supporting my lost love, Java, or my new love, Python in this matter... :-D
BTW Joao, do you know about xerces2's libpypac pacman library written in Python? it may be useful to you.

First of all I'd like to thank everyone for making me feel welcome :) Andy: I believe competition can be a good thing, since it motivates people to do better. I thank your offer of assistance, and I'll drop you a line if questions arise. I also like coding in Java very much, but wanted to learn Python :) Dusty: I have tried libpypac but I seem to be able to sync only '[current]' and not '[extra]' and '[community]'. And I'm also considering using pacman to install/upgrade/query packages. So I guess this is what I'll do. -- A mind all logic is like a knife all blade.
