Description: The Internet Communications Engine (Ice) provides a robust, proven platform for
        developing mission-critical networked applications. Let Ice handle all of the
        low-level details such as network connections, serialization, and concurrency so
        that you can focus on your application logic.
        
        
        Our Python extension makes the full Ice feature set available to Python
        developers, including:
        
        * Client and server support
        * Synchronous and asynchronous invocations
        * Communicate via TCP, SSL, UDP, multicast, and WebSocket transports
        * Supports IPv4 and IPv6
        * Intuitive mapping from Slice to Python
        
        To give you an idea of what it's like to use Ice in Python, here's a complete
        program that tests whether a remote Ice object is available:
        
        ::
        
          import Ice
          communicator = Ice.initialize()
          obj = communicator.stringToProxy("hello:tcp -h myhost.mydomain.com -p 10000")
          obj.ice_ping()
          communicator.destroy()
        
        With support for Python2 and Python3, you can easily add Ice to your existing
        Python infrastructure and discover how easy it is to build distributed
        applications with Ice.
        
        
        Package Contents
        ----------------
        
        This package includes the Ice extension for Python, the standard Slice
        definition files, and the Slice-to-Python compiler. You will need to install a
        full Ice distribution if you want to use other Ice language mappings, or Ice
        services such as IceGrid, IceStorm and Glacier2.
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        We recommend using ``pip`` or ``easy_install`` to install this package. If you
        install using ``python setup.py install`` instead, be aware that the Slice-to-
        Python compiler (``slice2py``) will not be available.
