Hi, Tom,
yep, right you are: submit didn't add the referer header. I've fixed
this & put it in the -latest, at
http://darcs.idyll.org/~t/projects/twill-latest.tar.gz
For easy_install, you should be able to do
easy_install -f http://issola.caltech.edu/~t/dist/ twill
to upgrade.
Let me know if this doesn't work for you & we'll keep on fixing problems
;).
cheers,
