[Python-Dev] Type-Def-ing Python

[Brian C. Lum]

Dear Python Community,

I have been trying to research how to type-def python.  I want to type-def 
python so that I can use it as a static analyzer to check for bugs.  I 
have been going over research on this field and I came upon
Brett Cannon's thesis in which he tweaks the compiler and shows that 
type-defing python would not help the compiler achieve a 5% performace 
increase.

Brett Cannon, "Localized Type Inference of Atomic Types in Python":
http://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/~bac/thesis.pdf

I was wondering if anyone could help me contact him so that I could might 
ask him for his source code and try to use type-defing as a bug-finder.

With thanks,
Brian
