[Python-Dev] Gsoc 2011 ideas
Hi everyone, I am planning to apply for Gsoc 2011 for the PSF . I would like to know if any of you have any ideas which can be implemented this summer. I guess the gsoc 2011 ideas page has not been put up as yet. So I thought maybe any of you can suggest some ideas .

Re: [Python-Dev] Gsoc 2011 ideas
Hey Yeswanth Students who get involved with the projects they plan to work with early have a definite edge over students who don't, so certainly get involved now. While I would highly encourage you to get involved with python-dev (core projects are top in line), you may also want to consider 3rd party libraries for Python 3 or to help a Python 2 library port to 3. Python-dev has a list of bugs. Pick one and start, submit patches, join IRC (#python-dev on irc.freenode.net) and see if you can find someone who can help you get started.

[Python-Dev] PSF Sponsored Sprint in Portland, OR
Hello Developers! I'm one of the organizers of the Portland PSF Sprint. We've been working hard on our proposal to come up with a strong program for a full day of sprinting in Portland. The day will mostly focus on porting libraries to Python 3, hacking on PyPY 2.7 compatibility and testing. It'll be a great time so if you're in the area stop on by! The current project list includes:- Fabric - Django - Flatland - PyPy - Alfajor Want to suggest your own? Use the signup sheet here. Breakfast is being sponsored by Idealist.org, lunch is being sponsored by Emma and beverages will be made available by Urban Airship. More information: http://goo.gl/XTMWv.

I think that having the "ultimately recommended" library for such programming in stdlib is a good idea, or at least some core of it. We have a tradition of new modules replacing old ones with the same functionality gradually (command line argument parsing, for example) and if someone is motivated enough to prepare a comprehensive PEP and then working on pulling it through, I think it may work.
