<div>Tobias,</div>

<div>if you (or someone else) had a concrete fix for #2513 (or at least a precise idea how to fix it), ideally kind of a pull request, we can consider it.</div>

<div>Otherwise - given that nobody seems to be actively working on #2513 - and there is no totally obvious fix discribed in the threat, I&#39;m afraid chances would be quite minimal. At least AFAICT.</div>

This bug in Jython&#39;s JSR 223 implementation prevents parallel execution. Therefore, the execution of Jython scripts is in our application guarded by a global lock, which is a performance bottleneck. A fix would be a great improvement for us!</span></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">So it looks like we will need a RC3 for Jython 2.7.1, given the following two bugs:</p>

<div>
<div>
<ul type="disc">
	<li class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://bugs.jython.org/issue2596" target="_blank">http://bugs.jython.org/issue2596</a> -&nbsp;Linebreaks in exceptions are wrong - PENDING</li>
	<li class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://bugs.jython.org/issue2593" target="_blank">http://bugs.jython.org/issue2593</a> -&nbsp;file.write(obj) if obj is not a str or buffer raises j.l.NullPointerException - OPEN</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">#2596, now fixed in master, is just the sort of bug that may scramble existing user tests (although multi-line messages are relatively rare). #2593 has an easy path to raising a NullPointerException that can come up in common Python code. But it should be very straightforward to guard against, so we should have a fix for it momentarily I would assume.</p>
</div>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">&nbsp;</p>
</div>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">And that is it. There are exactly 301 other bugs that are open, as I write this email, so clearly we have plenty of work to consider in the future. But in my judgment, we are about there for a final release.</p>
</div>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">&nbsp;</p>
</div>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">But it&#39;s still not too late to submit a bug against RC2! Please test against the download links on Frank&#39;s blog post:&nbsp;<a href="http://fwierzbicki.blogspot.com/2017/06/jython-271-rc2-released.html" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">http://fwierzbicki.blogspot.com/2017/06/<span class="gmail-il">jython</span>-271-<span class="gmail-il">rc2</span>-released.html</span></a></p>
