For people considering this, be aware that securing embedded Python (which is what this amounts to) is a *very* large task. There is a reason a "secure Python" isn't out & about, and it is not only because the core (Python) developers are not interested in it. And the examples linked to are either limited in what they sandbox (i.e. they can be worked around), are woefully out-of-date (i.e. would require significant work to apply to the version of Python used in Blender 2.5), or are not really feasible for Blender due to Python being embedded (PyPy's sandboxing). I am not saying that it shouldn't be done, I'd just be wary of a student being able to complete the task as a Google SoC project (through lack of time and/or capability). -- Regards, Benjamin Tolputt Analyst Programmer _______________________________________________ Bf-committers mailing list Bf-committers@blender.org http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers
