Hmm, I was there and I could do with the same! :-) Reading pypy-svn is probably the best way to get an idea of what happened. Most of the work was on the annontator/translator, although there was some appspace stuff -- md5, sha-1 hashes and files, although files are not plumbed into the rest of pypy yet -- and the usual polishing of the standard objects space. On the annotator side, there seems to be a general feeling that we have roughly the right approach now, although there are still an unknown number of hopefully small details to work out. The translator basically works, but there are some nasty hacks knocking about and we haven't really tackled the gnarly issue of how to make use of type annotations (currently the annotator is only used to work out *which* functions are called, and the knowledge of *how* they are called is ignored). Evolution, not revolution, I'd say. Cheers, mwh -- MGM will not get your whites whiter or your colors brighter. It will, however, sit there and look spiffy while sucking down a major honking wad of RAM. -- http://www.xiph.org/mgm/ _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
