So, outside there is the sun (well, not right now :-)), the temperature is getting warmer and it's already time to think again about summer of code :-). First of all, I don't know who and how many signed up as a mentors: if the PyPy project needs more, I'm available to sign up as a mentor as well. Next, I'm also considering the possibility of applying as a student again: the PhD grant I will receive from 1st of April is very low, so I will likely look for an additional job, and it would be great if the job were pypy-related instead of one of those boring projects I used to do before :-). But before applying I want to be sure not to be unfair, because my PhD is also about PyPy and I don't want to be paid twice for the same work: so my idea would be to do something unrelated to gencli&Co., just to be sure it's something that does not fit in my PhD program. Moreover, I will be well-disposed to withdraw my application if there are many others interesting pypy proposals, because I would not want to steal someone else the opportunity of doing such as great experience and to be involved in the project. What do you think about it? As I said I basically worry to be judged unfair, so I would like to know the opinions of other developers before begin thinking of a proposal (and in that case I guess that #pypy is much more convenient for discussing it :-)). ciao Anto _______________________________________________ [email protected] http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
