I think the work PyPy and Shedskin is doing is excellent for the python community. And I think RPython has an excellent future if will give it a little bit of a push. I am just a private citizen. So here is a small bounty/price of motivation to the PyPy team. I understand people do open source work for pride and not money. And Yes $200 may sound like small. I woud contribute code if I had the time, but I already have my hands on too many side projects. So this is me helping another way. Think of this as me hosting Pizza and Coke for one of the endless Sprints yall do :-)) Also I am hoping this is just seed money to motivate the RPython cause. And I am sincerely hoping others interested in seeing RPython and the C backend of PyPy develop more completely will also add to this prize pool and show support for the cause.

RPython is a nice language even right now, its very useful, i'm using it all the time. Too many people downplay its potentials saying its too hard or complex. I like the error messages, they help you understand how it all works; however it would be nice to see an official FAQ where the common errors are explained in plain english. RPython is only lacking a version number. -brett
