| * Add a web-based admin interface and/or user-oriented views to [http://www.third-bit.com/drproject DrProject], a lightweight project management portal intended for use in software engineering courses. * There are a number of potential TurboGears projects that may be interesting related to Kid, SQLAlchemy and TurboGears itself (like the FastData package). * A web-based offering through-the-web editing (with version control), execution, and testing of code (see ["SummerOfCode/WebIDE"]) * Create a full-featured WSGI app server (taking into account projects like [http://www.saddi.com/software/flup/ flup]) with special attention to things like resource usage and restarting after crashes, to make it suitable for commodity hosting environments ([mailto:ianb@colorstudy.com contact]). * A client side web browser. Grail is not currently maintained, and the others are almost entirely for automated or testing purposes, without a good interactive mode. But try to keep the scope reasonable, somehow. Perhaps hooking beautifulsoup or tidy to elementtree, urllib or urllib2, cookielib, and a text (or very basic) Tk front end? Do keep the DOM exposed, so that others can build on it more easily. Alternatively extracting an HTML 2 Tk widget from the grail project and them building more support of HTML 4 into in would be very useful. |

| * Push-button web. A prototype system exists to manage HTML and ReST content in a relational database and publish it as static HTML. The wxPython GUI needs improvement and a more consistent substitution mechanism is required, together with better documentation and a supporting web content (which should be managed as a push-button web). | |

| * A more complete CD interface. [http://www.gnu.org/software/libcdio libcdio] is a library for Platform-dependent control and reading of a CD device. There is also some support for reading CD images (BIN/CUE CDRDAO, ISO) as though they were real devices. [http://freshmeat.net/projects/libcdio/?branch_id=62870 Some work] has been done to extend the API to Python, via SWIG. However this OO wrapping is not complete. In particular handling MMC (Multi-media) commands is missing and a CD-Paranoia interface (OO or not) is missing. All of the OO API's are fairly new, so if you feel you want to improve on the API, that's okay too. |
Applications in, of or with Python
This page lists application-related ideas.
- Research how to get python support into all the cheap webhosts.
- Write a new and useful application in Python.
Improve an existing Python application (e.g. [http://wiki.list.org/display/DEV/Summer+of+Code Mailman], BitTorrent, Zope). Some Python-based projects are SoC mentoring organizations in their own right, so you might end up being mentored by them, not the PSF. (You should probably contact a current developer on the project first, to ensure that your plans mesh with theirs. JimJJewett offers to help if you want to work on [http://www.plkr.org plucker], which lets you read web pages on a disconnected palm pilot.)
[http://pyxides.stani.be/ PyxIDE] has several potential projects related to IDEs in Python. Real-time code analysis would be a good project (which could in turn be used to build auto-completion and other tools).
Improve the Eclipse IDE's support for Python: http://pydev.sf.net
Improved python code generation support in umbrello [http://uml.sourceforge.net/index.php] or alternatively a pure python implementation to parse umbrello files and generate python code.
Bring [http://www.enthought.com/enthought/wiki/MayaVi MayaVi 2's] feature set up to the level of [http://mayavi.sourceforge.net MayaVi 1.5] ([mailto:robert.kern@enthought.com contact]).
integrate Bayesian Filtering with MoinMoin. see: [http://gauss.ffii.org/BayesWiki full proposal]
isn't this better under the MoinMoin mentors? see below..
[http://pywinauto.pbwiki.com/ pywinauto]
- Create tool to allow macro recording (possibly using pyAA or pyHook - or other tools).
- Research how one pywinauto script can work on any number of (spoken) languages.
[http://regal.sdsu.edu/stars Stars]
- Space Time Analysis of Regional Systems
- Assist with the refactoring of this program... Tasks include, visualization, interaction and data structures.
Improve [http://grac.sourceforge.net/ GRAC], a GRAmmar Checker based on learning algorithms.
Improve [http://mark.dufour.googlepages.com/ Shed Skin], an optimizing Python-to-C++ compiler, that typically results in code that is 2-40 times faster than when using Psyco. A nice SoC topic would be to add memory optimizations (such as transforming heap allocation into stack- and static preallocation), to bring the performance of generated code even closer to that of manually written C++.
