I don't have too much to say here, but I'm very interested in a Jython track. I'm hoping that the existence of this page will attract enough attention, interest, and organizational aupport that we can make Jython an important part of PyCon DC 2003. In fact, if the conference had a Jython track, I would be more likely to attend. (I even submitted an abstract for a talk about introducing Jython for a Java development shop.) My main job involves Java development, and I haven't done too much with Jython. What I've seen has impressed me with its potential, and I can't believe Jython hasn't become Python's "killer app" that spreads the language to the large existing base of Java developers. So, anyone else up for a Jython track? What topics interest you? Start a list! ---- |

| How about sprinting? Anyone interested in a Jython-related sprint? Here are some ideas for sprint topics. If we want to do a Jython sprint, we'll need to organize it and make it part of the official SprintPlan. |
We did end up having a Jython BOF on Friday, March 28, at 9 a.m. It was attended by about a dozen people (add your name if you feel like it). Since the theme of the conference was "Popularizing Python," much of the discussion centered around how Jython is used and how that could help popularize Python. We have started a CategoryJython page on this wiki to help track issues related to Jython. |

| * Attacking some "Jython should be fixed" items on [http://www.jython.org/docs/differences.html Jython page] (may be mixed Java and Python development) * Tinkering with the Jython interpreter (would be mostly Java development) |

Jython track at PyCon DC 2003 - Build Your Own Conference!!!!
Hm...judging by the PyConSchedule, there won't be much Jython discussion in the official talks. Perhaps we can organize some BoFs or OpenSpace discussions at the conference.
Jython topics
Add your own ideas.
- Intro to Jython (I have an outline for this topic. -TAB)
- Introducing Jython to a Java development team.
- Differences between Jython and Python
- Embedding Jython in a Java application. (submitted -aeden)
- Using Jython in J2EE development.
- Jython development tools: editing, debugging, etc.
- Scripting Java with Jython
- Inside the Jython interpreter
- Extending Jython with Java code
Jython BOF
