2.5 should be mostly implemented, there are still a couple of bugs left and the branch is still not merged, but we should get there soon. Something that would be quite useful is to port some of the remaining extension modules of CPython to be either pure Python or RPython (where Python is usually preferred). Some of the easy candidates are csv, maybe curses (using ctypes).
