Hate to keep bugging but... Is there any status update on the final donations?
I had worked some on one portion of things for python and almost had it ready (1) [late last year with draft PR with pending work to resolve conflicting unrealized files] but held off on finalizing the work due to the need for usage of the official donation version as opposed to to the the hg repository and forked source that I leveraged previously while working things. Possible new implementation has also been discussed but have not started anything on that. Anything?
