how to get into the codebase? Open bugs?
by Niko Matsakis April 6, 2006

April 6, 2006

Hello, I am yet-another-compiler-PhD-student interested in exploring PyPy. I have been lurking on the list for some time, and a Python enthusiast for longer, but I have yet to really dig into PyPy to get a better understanding of how it works (beyond what is published on the web site). In previous jobs and lives, I've always found that fixing a few simple bugs or implementing some low priority features can be a great way to delve into a code base. As such, I am wondering if … [View More]

Rtyping classes definitions?
by Antonio Cuni April 4, 2006

April 4, 2006

Hi, I'm writing the code that generates CLI classes starting from ootypesystem classes definitions, but as always I have a problem :-). At the moment the only way to access class definitions is by calling TranslationContext.annotator.getuserclassdefinitions(), which returns a list of ClassDef instances: I've noticed that class attributes are not typed but only annotated. Obviously for generating CLI classes I need to rtype class definitions, so that I can know the exact low-level type of … [View More]

inquiry: phd positions
by Jakob Praher April 3, 2006

April 3, 2006

hi all, my name is Jakob Praher. I am located in Linz, Austria. Currently I am finishing my master thesis, which is about developing an aspect oriented dynamic bytecode instrumentation framework for program analysis on top of LLVM. I am very interested to work in that area as a PHd student. From your website I know you are also working on an LLVM backend. PyPy seems to be a European effort, so my naive question is, whether you have any PhD projects in this area or could point me to … [View More]

Thank you Nik for this important information, we did indeed believe that we missed the deadline. David Ascher is Canadian, as is ActiveState. I have cc'd this to him so that he can go about the business of correcting the pure slander that they are American, because Nik has clearly taken this from some other site.

[Fwd: Dynamic Languages Symposium 2006 - Technical Papers (CfP)]
by Niklaus Haldimann April 1, 2006

April 1, 2006

Hi there If I remember correctly some people were under the impression that the deadline for the Dynamic Languages Symposium at OOPSLA has already passed. Obviously this isn't so (it's June 1st, see below). If PyPy is going to submit a technical paper to just one conference this year, it should probably be this one. ;) Considering who's on the program committee it's also likely that it will actually be accepted. Cheers Nik -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Dynamic Languages … [View More]Symposium 2006 - Technical Papers (CfP) Date: Fri, 31 Mar 2006 16:20:47 +0200 From: Robert Hirschfeld <robert.hirschfeld(a)gmx.net> Reply-To: hirschfeld(a)acm.org, The general-purpose Squeak developers list <squeak-dev(a)lists.squeakfoundation.org> To: squeak-dev(a)lists.squeakfoundation.org, croquet(a)lists.wisc.edu Dynamic Languages Symposium 2006 - Technical Papers Call for papers Portland, Oregon, United States, October 22, 2006 http://www.dcl.hpi.uni-potsdam.de/dls2006/ The Dynamic Languages Symposium (DLS) at OOPSLA 2006 is a forum for discussion of dynamic languages, their implementation and application. While mature dynamic languages including Smalltalk, Lisp, Scheme, and Prolog continue to grow and inspire new converts, a new generation of dynamic scripting languages such as Python, Ruby, PHP, and JavaScript are successful in a wide range of applications. DLS provides a place for researchers and practitioners to come together and share their knowledge, experience, and ideas for future research and development. The Technical Papers track of DLS 2006 invites high quality papers reporting original research, innovative contributions or experience related to dynamic languages, their implementation and application. Accepted Papers will be published in the OOPSLA conference companion and the ACM Digital Library. Areas of interest include but are not limited to * Reflection and meta-programming * Very late binding, dynamic composition, and runtime adaptation * Actors and active objects * Innovative language features and implementation techniques * Development and platform support, tools * Language symbiosis and multi-paradigm languages * Experience reports and case studies * Interesting applications * Educational approaches and perspectives * Domain-oriented programming * Object-oriented, aspect-oriented, and context-oriented programming Submissions and proceedings We invite original contributions that neither have been published previously nor are under review by other refereed events or publications. Research papers should describe work that advances the current state of the art. Experience papers should be of broad interest and should describe insights gained from substantive practical applications. The program committee will evaluate each contributed paper based on its relevance, significance, clarity, and originality. Papers are to be submitted electronically at http://www.dcl.hpi.uni-potsdam.de/node2006/ in PDF format. Submissions need to use the ACM format, templates for which can be found at http://www.acm.org/sigs/pubs/proceed/template.html. Important dates Submission of papers (hard deadline): June 1, 2006 (Thursday) Author notification: July 1, 2006 (Saturday) Final version due: July 11, 2006 (Tuesday) DLS Technical Papers Day: October 22, 2006 (Sunday) DLS Invited Talks Day: October 23, 2006 (Monday) Chair Robert Hirschfeld Hasso-Plattner-Institut, University of Potsdam, Germany hirschfeld(a)acm.org Program committee David Asher, ActiveState, United States Gilad Bracha, Sun Microsystems, United States Pascal Costanza, Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Belgium Richard P.
