Agreed. The PyPy ones are good.

I was simply going with what the abstract said.  I am fine with discussion
needing to be timely (a week?).  But it seems that from what you are saying,
just to be clear, "Point (2) Implementation" is also non-existent as the
PyPy benchmarks already exist.  If the point of the GSoC is to port the PyPy
benchmarks to Python 3, under "Point (3) Porting", might I suggest a slight
revision of the proposal ;)?

Be Well
