PyPy tasks in GHOP

2007-12-07 22:40

In the latest bunch of tasks that Titus released on Friday for the Google Highly Open Participation Contest there are several that are related to PyPy. Some of them are about presenting PyPy to a technical audience: Task 187, Task 188, Task 189, Task 190. Then there are some three about Ropes, which are all rather challenging:

Solving the first three section of the last ICFP contest with PyPy's ropes implementation:Task 248.
Implementing nice wrapper classes around PyPy's ropes algorithms to make their use convenient: Task 239.
Implementing the Ropes algorithms in C as a CPython extension module: Task 218 (already taken).

In addition there is a task to use PyPy's sandboxing features to provide an interactive Python tutorial on a web page: Task 220. We're really looking forward to working together with some bright students!
