Jython Ideas

Porting Zope

At PyCon, there was some talk of porting ["Zope"], or at least the ZODB, to ["Jython"]. Zope Corp. seems interested in this, but they need Jython 2.2.

Jython with Eclipse

Is it possible to script ["Eclipse"] with ["Jython"]? If so, could we write a little tutorial?

["EclipsePythonIntegration"] gives lots of help.

Jython success stories

We need some. If you know of any large commercial or non-commercial project that has used Jython with success (ideally shipping ["Jython"] code as all or part of a product), please add a note to JythonSuccessStories. Someone will try to track down more information and interview those involved.

Jython Problems

• ["Jython"] is currently (mostly) compatible with Python 2.1. There has not been a Jython release that brings Jython up to Python 2.2. This delay is a problem for several projects (see above).

• Jython does not work with [http://www.kaffe.org/ Kaffe], which is the only Java implementation that is light enough for the [http://www.ltsp.org/ Linux Terminal Server Project] (used in some schools).
