A quick google search would imply someone did it already. I think it may be an interesting option for packagers but I wouldn't like to bring PyPy into AOO: the build process looks somewhat complex although it's probably more portable that the standard CPython. >Also would be interesting to test the pyuno module in PyPy make sure is >compatible. > According to the PyPy site it is compatible with Python 2.7.2 so it should just work. >Finally I wonder which extension is dependend on Python2 from the PyUNO >module? > There are probably a lot of scripts out there? Unfortunately it doesn't look like pyuno is very popular. Pedro.
