Most miners I know of are open source:
poclbm, phoenix (with both kernels), puddinpop... there are also open source CPU and even FPGA miners.

Jeez, me Mr Unobservant !

Thanks

I'd be interested to know of any open source mining software. Primarily to see how they coded it.

I only know of the two open source pool software

Pushpool and poold.py

FPGA
Python
Pushpool support

?!?!?

Sounds a bit like trolling to me...

If you're able to use FPGAs I bet you should be able to use the forum search function as well AND I wonder why you would use Python (or Windows for that matter)?

Jsut get the RPC + LongPolling specs and write the communication part yourself - shouldn't be that hard.

I'm looking for a mining client which meets the following criteria:

Open source
Allows easy integration of new mining methods (FPGA in my case)
Runs on Linux, and ideally on Windows as well
Written in a sane programming language, preferably Python
Supports long polling
Supports falling back to another pool in case of outages, without first waiting for the pool to repond for several minutes
Pushpool support would be a plus

Which software would you suggest?

If this can't be achieved with a single piece of software, I'd consider a stack of a "dumb" mining software and a clever proxy for it as well.

you are using FGPA?
