URL Change… update your bookmarks

A little administrative message… I have moved the blog to http://www.startcodon.com/wordpress instead of http://www.startcodon.com

301 redirects are in place.

301s have been gone for a while now.  Now there’s just a little notice on the root with links to this blog and my girlfriend’s blog.

School winding down… SoC winding up.

The coming week after this week is exam week at MSU… so for the time being I don’t have too much “extra” time to participate hardcore in the Community Bonding Period.  That being said, here’s a little to-do list of things I need to get done before May 23:

  • Learn how to use Bitbucket and Mercurial… done.
  • Check out the Python trunk… done.
  • Examine how 2to3 implements fixers… done.
  • Become very familiar with the changes in Py3k that I will need to write fixers for… done.

Ready to go!

I’ve been accepted into Google Summer of Code 2009 for the Python Software Foundation doing a project for 3to2!

I’m going to center this blog around my experience this year.
