Hi Guys Im new to these lists. I wanna contribute to the jython project. But most of the docs seem outdated. I read on the wiki that the best place to start would be to port a python module over to jython to learn the codebase. So where can I find a list of modules that are still not ported. Thx Julian |

Hi Julian and welcome! We had a brief discussion about this recently: http://python.6.n6.nabble.com/Jython-roadmap-td4986001.html As for unported modules - I don't think there is a definitive list anymore. One that gets asked for a bunch is the bz2 module. I think someone attempted to use Apache bz2 support once, but it didn't quite work so it would probably have to be a full translation of the CPython version. There are also a couple of functions in our math module that are written in pure python that would perform better if they where rewritten in Java. -Frank |

Thx. I have a patch for the csv tests that are failing.

You can always take a look at the Jython roadmap on the wiki as well. It lists individuals and what they are helping out with to get us to the next release. As Frank mentioned though, there is no real definitive list as this is most likely out of date....but it is a start: http://wiki.python.org/jython/RoadMap I recommend posting what you are working on there so that everyone can see what is already being worked on. Again, this page is a bit dated, so if you are interested in working on something that is already noted on the list, then you may wish to send mail to this list to see if it is actively being developed. I know that the items I am supposed to be working on are lagging quite a bit behind!! Sorry about that... I think another good route for helping out is just to download the latest sources for 2.7 and try to repair unit tests to make them functional. All of the Python unit tests are available with the sources I believe. If a test does not work properly when executed, then the module that depends upon the test needs to be repaired. Hope this helps. Josh Juneau http://jj-blogger.blogspot.com https://www.apress.com/index.php/author/author/view/id/1866 On Aug 31, 2012, at 6:22 PM, Julian Kennedy <jul...@gm...> wrote: > Thx.

I think it still requires a strong PM input to deconflict offers, enumerate what been missed, and (most delicate) identify when a contributor has bitten off more than they can chew. Jeff |

Jeff- Looks like you took a stab at updating the roadmap. It looks a bit more accurate now, thanks! I wonder if there is a tracker built into the Sourceforge project management that would for better management of "who is doing what", and what the current roadmap is. I will poke around a bit to see, but I cannot remember coming across anything that is targeted for that type of information in the past.

I did. But coming in from a different direction, I can find at least two other pages trying to do the same job: http://wiki.python.org/jython/JythonDeveloperGuide/PleaseAdoptMe http://wiki.python.org/jython/WhosDoingWhat Is any of the stuff on those pages true or useful? Anyone brave/knowledgeable enough to get rid of things that are neither? Jeff On 01/09/2012 14:16, Josh Juneau wrote: > Jeff- > > Looks like you took a stab at updating the roadmap.
