Hi Geat to hear, welcome! We recently have put up a list of interesting mid-size project for PyPy, feel free to have a look: http://pypy.readthedocs.org/en/latest/project-ideas.html (except the website seems to be down for me at the moment) > -- > Even Wiik > [email protected] > _______________________________________________ > pypy-dev mailing list > [email protected] > http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev > _______________________________________________ pypy-dev mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
