SummerOfCode/2010 - Python Wiki

This page coordinates the Google Summer of Code projects involving Python under the umbrella of the Python Software Foundation (PSF) in 2010.

The 2010 PSF SoC coordinator is ArcRiley <arcriley@gmail.com>. Contact him if you have any questions.

Prospective Students

If you are a student interested in working on core Python development or on a project that helps the Python community, we'd love to have you apply to the Python Software Foundation for this year's Google Summer of Code.

You should join the soc2010-general mailing list and take a look at the Project Ideas section below. If any interest you, feel free to contact the proposer for details. You can also discuss your own project ideas with the people mentioned or talk about them on the soc2010-general mailing list. Some of us also hang out on #gsoc-python on freenode.

Students should read SummerOfCode/Expectations to understand what is expected of them.

Please read SummerOfCode/Application to find out what to put in your application.

NOTE: This year we're soliciting and prioritizing applications for Python 3.x -- 3K tools, porting old projects, etc. Python 2.x projects will be a distinct second. There will be no special "core" category this year.

Porting projects

rpy2 (R-Python bridge). Beside the translations of Python idioms, the C-level will require care regarding Unicode strings and Bytes arrays. Also, adding Python 3-specific features such as memory views along the way would be nice.

Python, C

Updating examples for Software Carpentry to Python 3 according to the roadmap for future work. This includes replacing Make material with material on SCons, replacing xml.dom.minidom with something more Pythonic, improving the performance and skinnability of Plastex, and building some support tools.
