I'm currently working on the coercion model and rich comparison.

I have added the major new features as task to the task manager on
sourceforge. If anyone wants to tackle a task or fix a bug they can post
their intention here (to avoid duplicate work). Patches can be posted to
the patch manager.

http://sourceforge.net/pm/task.php?group_project_id=6960&group_id=12867&func=browse
http://sourceforge.net/patch/?group_id=12867

Developer rights are granted to patch writers with a proven history of
atleast 1 non-trivial patch.

In addition to the tasks on the tasklist, I hope these tests from
CPython-2.1 will succeed by the time Jython-2.1 is released.
