Hello all. Due to the fact that there's no way in hell for me to get out of the US by March, and due to the fact that I love this concept, I've hacked up some basic replacements for various functions in __builtin__. The code resides at http://fenton.baltimore.md.us/pypy.py Take a look at it and tell me what you think.
Cool! A pity you can't take part. But latest at the next EuroPython we should do another sprint. I really want to get a repository going soon. You code should be checked in there. I'd love to have people porting various bits of C-coded stuff into pure Python. Though i prefer coding myself i would take some time to organize such an effort. Help with organizing this C to Python effort would be much appreciated. Think of testing (sic!), nightly builds, SCons etc.pp. I'd prefer to do this on a subversion repository which we (at codespeak) hopefully set up pretty soon. I guess i am not the only one eager to try this out. If it there are big obstacles we resort to good old cvs. Sorry for (ab)using your contribution for this interwoven half-announcement. regards, holger
