Getting involved
by Travis Jensen 03 Jun '14

03 Jun '14

Hi, I've been following pypy for a while and have thought it would be fun to get involved. Recently, I've been wondering what python with tail call optimization would look like (I'm disgruntled by GVR's decision :), and realized this might be a good way for me to get involved in pypy. So a few questions: First, is this within the realms of (reasonable) possibility? I don't want to dive into something that is not realistically possible. Given I'm a noob in the pypy world, where would be a good place to start getting my feet wet on this? Thanks. tj
