Great. > I'm interested in using actual bugs in Python as exercises Please consider including review of existing patches. Besides being useful, it will also teach students how to submit good patches of their own. Your primary choice is whether to work on changes in the C code for the interpreter and builtin modules or changes in the Python code in standard library modules. The former would be more appropriate for a class on application programming in C, so I suggest the latter for learning Python programming. Besides which, improving the library will probably be a focus of the just-starting 2.5 cycle. You can access existing patch and bug lists via http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=5470 For each, you can narrow list by selecting, for instance, Category 'Python Library'. Terry J.
