Dear Python-Dev-ers,
about half of the tasks for the GHOP contest (described below) are
currently on the stdlib, Python core, or Py3K:
http://code.google.com/p/google-highly-open-participation-psf/issues/list?q=label:stdlib
http://code.google.com/p/google-highly-open-participation-psf/issues/list?q=label:core
http://code.google.com/p/google-highly-open-participation-psf/issues/list?q=label:py3k
We have room for another twenty or so; if you can come up with testing
tasks, documentation updates/review needs, or anything else that you can
write down in a fairly detailed and specific way, we'd love to have
them.
Here are the new task guidelines:

and I'm happy to write up the tasks if people send me good ideas.
cheers,
--titus

Subject: Google Highly Open Participation Contest
Dear Python community,
I'm happy to announce that the Python Software Foundation is part of a
new Google Open Source program, the Highly Open Participation Contest.
This contest is an effort by Google to engage pre-college students in
open source programming: Google is offering prizes and awards for
completing a variety of tasks for several organizations.
You can read the official announcement of the PSF's involvement over on
the Python Software Foundation blog, at
http://pyfound.blogspot.com/
or read about the overall Google Highly Open Participation Contest on
the GHOP page itself,
http://code.google.com/opensource/ghop/2007-8
Python's project page is:
http://code.google.com/p/google-highly-open-participation-psf/
There are several ways that the community can help; please check out the
MentorPage,
http://code.google.com/p/google-highly-open-participation-psf/wiki/MentorPage
for more information. We could use more mentors, and there's room for
~40 more tasks -- why not write one up on your own project?
Also be sure to thank the people who made this possible,
http://code.google.com/p/google-highly-open-participation-psf/wiki/Contributors
and, of course, Google!
best,
--titus
