Re: [Jython-users] Jython 2.7.3b1 Released

[Jeff A. <ja...@fa...>]

Further to the off-repo experimental work (VSJ) Jim references, as I 
became reasonably sure of the implementation approach, I migrated code 
to the "main" (not "master") branch of the Jython repo,. We will make 
"main" the default when Jython 3 is viable (agreed on jython-dev).

See https://github.com/jython/jython/tree/main

Where possible, the migration is a graft into prior work moved from 
Jython 2. For this reason, a lot of Jython 2 code waits unchanged on 
this branch in ~/src, but this folder is not referenced in the build. 
(~/core is where it's at.) I'm re-using even the core built-ins, but the 
problem of "new patch, old garment" means there is not much original but 
the shape, by the end of the replacement. As Jim says, I expect to 
re-use increasingly, with change only at the detailed level.

I took a break to release 2.7.3, so as to honour the contributions 
people had made since 2.7.2,. I hope the beta is nearly adequate, so I 
can work mostly on VSJ and 3.8.
