111

been started on a JIT prototype, we added support for __del__ in PyPy,

112

the socket module had some progress, PyPy got faster and work was started to

<a class="reference" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuation_passing_style">continuation-passing</a> style (stackless), making the translation process

134

work for target languages with more powerful object systems and some tiny

<p>The last <a class="reference" href="http://codespeak.net/pypy/extradoc/sprintinfo/Heidelberg-sprint.html">PyPy sprint</a> took place at the Heidelberg University

152

in Germany from 22nd August to 29th August (both days included).

153

Its main focus is translation of the whole PyPy interpreter

154

to a low level language and reaching 2.4.1 Python compliance.

155

The goal of the sprint is to release a first self-contained

156

PyPy-0.7 version. Carl has written a report about <a class="reference" href="http://codespeak.net/pipermail/pypy-dev/2005q3/002287.html">day 1 - 3</a>,

developer one and a public one. Both sprints were quite

successful. Regarding the Pre-EuroPython sprint Michael Hudson

177

has posted summaries of <a class="reference" href="http://codespeak.net/pipermail/pypy-dev/2005q2/002169.html">day 1</a>, <a class="reference" href="http://codespeak.net/pipermail/pypy-dev/2005q2/002171.html">day 2</a> and <a class="reference" href="http://codespeak.net/pipermail/pypy-dev/2005q2/002172.html">day 3</a> on

the <a class="reference" href="http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev">pypy-dev</a> mailing list. The larger public sprint

179

has not been summarized yet but it went very well. We had

180

20 people initially attending to hear the tutorials and

181

work a bit. Later with around 13-14 people we made the

182

move to Python-2.4.1, integrated the parser, improved

183

the LLVM backends and type inference in general.
