Hi.

I would like to start contributing in a meaningful way to Cython on the order of ~1 day a week, within the framework of the time allocated to me from my employer (Quansight Labs) toward open source contributions. Over time, my goal is push for an HPy[0] backend for Cython, but I also want to help the project move forward toward an official 3.0 release and in general to help out where needed.


So working backwards:

What are the immediate pain points that I could help out with in general?

How can I help with the 3.0 release (there are issues marked as "blockers", are all of them truly critical)?

And, in the long term, is there a way to start designing a new backend for HPy?


I would also like to suggest that Cython hold monthly open "developer calls" where people can meet face-to-face (on zoom) to work out priorities and triage particularly difficult issues or PRs. I would be happy to try to set this up (mainly to negotiate a time that would work) if you-all think it is a good idea and would contribute more than it would distract.


Thanks,

Matti
