Andromeda,

There is a small and still unorganized group of folks who are interested in setting up a sandbox instance (and later a real mirror) of the Open Library which is written in python and in particular web.py, and a platform called infogami.

http://infogami.org

In particular look at the developer tutorial on the Open Library site. It's out of date in re the Open Library but may still represent the basics of infogami.

Should those of us interested in this set up a communication environment? Or should we use this c4l list for a while, until we find we need something else?

OK, y'all convinced me; I want to commit something to my very first
big-girl open source project.

Now, which?

* I primarily speak Python (plus Django). I know a little jQuery. I could
dust off a tiny bit of PHP (though I'd rather not) and am not averse to an
excuse to learn (more than four hours of) Ruby.

* I don't work for a library so I don't have access to, e.g., most ILSes; I
need to be able to assemble the development environment from open-source
parts.

* Big ++ if the project has good documentation (not just of the code but of
how to set up the dev environment, run tests, shave all the yaks, etc.)

* friendly people ++ too.
