[Python-Dev] Volunteer help with porting

2010-09-07 Thread Prashant Kumar
Hi everyone,

My name is Prashant Kumar and I wish to contribute to the Python development
process by helping convert certain existing python
over to python3k.

Is there anyway I could obtain a list of libraries which need to be ported
over to python3k, sorted by importance(by importance i mean
packages which serve as a dependency for larger number of packages being
more important).

Thanks,
Prashant Kumar

Sure I will look into this. Could you please point me towards the
repository(I'd love it if I could use mercurial for the development process
rather than svn)?.

Hello everyone. My name is Prashant. I and my friend Zubin recently
ported 'Configobj'. It would be great if somebody can suggest about
any utilities or scripts that are being widely used and need to be
ported.

[Python-Dev] [GSoC] Porting on RPM3

2011-03-20 Thread Prashant Kumar
Hello,
My name is  Prashant Kumar and I've worked on porting few python
libraries(distutils2, configobj) and I've been looking at the ideas
list for GSoC for a project related to porting.

I came across [1]  and found it interesting. It mentions that some
of the work has already been done; I would like to look at the code
repository for the same, could someone provide me the link for the
same?


Regards,
pkumar
