first of all: I am not a python programmer, i just want to run default instalation of OSQA on linux hosting. My hosting provider installed it for me, and OSQA is working with ony one (but serious) error - if i try to post question/answer/comment with URL in text (http://www.whatever.com/whatever) - the empty post is added (no text at all), and this error appears in log :

I tried to google it, but no luck.
OSQA is Fantasy Island (v0.9.0) Beta 3, Django is in version 1.3.1 afaik.
Thanks for any help!
The Python-Markdown new version seems move etree/AtomicString to markdown.util, So you can try this workaround, modify mdx_urlize.py
try:
from markdown.util import etree
## replace markdown.etree with just etree
#el = markdown.etree.Element("a")
el = etree.Element("a")
## replace markdown.AtomicString with markdown.util.AtomicString
#el.text = markdown.AtomicString(text)
el.text = markdown.util.AtomicString(text)
