Since Monday the new python library for CMIS is available in version 0.2.
cmislib provides a CMIS client library for Python that can be used to work with CMIS-compliant repositories such as Alfresco, IBM FileNet, Nuxeo and others.

The high-level To-Do list is in the about page within the docs. Code-level To-Do’s are scattered throughout the source. Basically, right now you can:

• Create folders and documents (with or without content)
• Retrieve and update properties on folders and documents
• Checkout, checkin, cancel checkout
• Delete folders and documents
• Run CMIS queries, including those that return paged results
• Get the list of object type definitions or specific type defs by type ID

The library has been tested against:

• Alfresco 3.2r2 Community (CMIS 1.0cd04)
• Alfresco hosted CMIS (CMIS 1.0cd06)
• IBM FileNet P8 (CMIS 1.0cd06)
