Hi John,
   
Thanks for your reply. 

   I would like to use the latest BGL-python against the boost 1.53, better wilth PBGL python binding enabled.
And I have compiled the boost 1.53 in the following environment :
Windows 7 x64, Python 2.66 x86, MPICH2 1.32 x86, VS2010 SP1
So my first question is how could I get the latest BGL-python from svn (https://svn.osl.iu.edu/svn/projects_viz/bgl-python)?
It prompts that I need a username and a password to check it out (I am using the TortoiseSVN).

Thanks.

I don't think there are any plans to develop the BGL python bindings any
further. However they are usable in their current state. I would
recommend using the (slightly newer) svn version
(https://svn.osl.iu.edu/svn/projects_viz/bgl-python) rather than 0.9 as
it has an improved property map mechanism
(http://www.langreiter.com/space/bgl-python-notes). If you do use them
and have any trouble compiling them just ask here. I wonder if they
should not be added to boost.python as an example.
Cheers,
John.
