A category page for content specific to Jython. We discussed creating this page during a Jython BOF at PyCon 2003.

Jython Ideas
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?
We need some Jython success stories. 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 Kaffee, which is the only Java implementation that is light enough for the Linux Terminal Server Project (used in some schools).
