[Python-3000] [Python-Dev] 2.6 and 3.0 project management

[Anand Balachandran Pillai]

Hi py3k,

     First of all, excuse me for taking your time. I am new to the list
so, not familiar with the processes specific to the list, if any.

     I am new to the list (joined a week back) but not new to Python having
coded in it for a fair bit of time and contributed open source code in Python,
but not yet to the Python project.

    I have been reading the py3k archives and some recent mails. I
would like to help out in some way. I am familiar with the Python
development process and has read most of the PEPs related to
Py3k. Perhaps there are some bugs to fix, some documentation to
be done, testing ... ?

    Excuse me if I sound naive, but I am not sure where to start.
I checked out py3k branch, built it and have it running on my Fedora box.
Is there a URL showing a list of tasks to start with so I can start on
something ?

Did not want to start a new thread for my post, so replying to a thread
which seemed relevant.

Thanks a lot for your patience.

Best Regards

--Anand
