Pywbem is a WBEM client, written in pure Python. It runs on Python 2 and Python 3.
A WBEM client allows issuing operations to a WBEM server, using the CIM operations over HTTP (CIM-XML) protocol defined in the DMTF standards DSP0200 and DSP0201. The CIM/WBEM infrastructure is used for a wide variety of systems management tasks supported by systems running WBEM servers. See WBEM Standards for more information about WBEM.

Version 0.9.0 - (UPDATE 21 Aug. 2016) - Delaying 0.9.0 release by one more week to resolve open issues. Current expected release is now 26 August 2016
Version 0.9.0 - (UPDATE 2 Aug. 2016) The pywbem team has concluded that we will delay the release of version 0.9.0 to 20 August 2016 because of a couple of open issues, in particular, the new listener. While the current listener in the development code works we feel we should restructure it to allow indication listeners to be independent of the functions of subscription management. Otherwise, anybody who uses the existing code could be subjected to a major rewrite in version 0.10.0.
This release was orignally scheduled for early June 2016. See issue #163 for an overview of version 0.9.0 goal sand the github issues for milestone 0.9.0 for details on what changes are done and planned for pywbem version 0.9.0.
Version 0.10.0 - Next version after the version 0.9.0 release. See the issues for milestone 0.10.0 for current planning for this release. Generally release expected about 2 months after 0.9.0 but that is a very preliminary estimate.
