<br><br>We have extracted CellProfiler's Python wrappers for JNI and<br>
Bioformats and made them into separate packages. Prereleases are now<br>
up on PyPI, and we'd appreciate if someone would try them out and give<br>
feedback.<br>
<br>
(Lee, I think you know some people who have expressed interest. Can<br>
you please tell them?)<br>

The javabridge Python package makes it easy to start a Java virtual<br>
machine (JVM) from Python and interact with it. Python code can<br>
interact with the JVM using a low-level API or a more convenient<br>
high-level API.<br>

Python-bioformats is a Python wrapper for Bio-Formats, a standalone<br>
Java library for reading and writing life sciences image file formats.<br>
Bio-Formats is capable of parsing both pixels and metadata for a large<br>
number of formats, as well as writing to several formats.<br>
Python-bioformats uses the python-javabridge to start a Java virtual<br>
machine from Python and interact with it. Python-bioformats was<br>
developed for and is used by the cell image analysis software<br>
CellProfiler (<a href="http://cellprofiler.org" target="_blank">cellprofiler.org</a>).<br>
