[Scons-dev] GSOC this year?

[William Deegan]

All,

We need to turn in the proposal by tomorrow.
I've put up a google doc for the proposal here:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wOQGgUfdLlY355IC24YyB74i5Kg7uw-35A1Lsdos5aE/edit?usp=sharing

I've copied/pasted from the FAQ on what we should put in our proposal:
http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/document/show/gsoc_program/google/gsoc2013/help_page#1._How_does_a_mentoring_organization


So for mentors we have:
* Myself
* Russel Winder
* Gary O (as a backup only)

For projects:
* ? Please fill in on the doc.

I'm looking at Anatoly's list below and trying to figure out if this is reasonable for a student to complete in 12 weeks and/or how to partition the tasks below into chunks which are sized for completion.

Here's some other thoughts I have:
* Change SCons code to be runnable on py2.7 and py3.0
* Get SCons to work better/at all on cygwin
* Change code to use more modern constructs (slots, generators/iterators)
* Improve packaging (get it into pypy and make it work with python setup.py and also in virtualenvs)
