=== Simon Belak ===
simon.belak@hruska.si

[http://www.turbogears.org TurboGears] developer.

I am also interested in projects involving AI or WSGI.

=== Robert (Rocky) Bernstein ===

Around the beginning of 2006, I've extened pdb.py to be more complete using the gdb command set as a guideline. See [http://bashdb.sf.net/pydb]. I've also written debuggers for [http://bashdb.sf.net/remake GNU make] and [http://bashdb.sf.net GNU Bash]. Areas where pdb (or pydb) should to be extended (such as in a Summer of Code project) are
 * thread debugging
 * debugging from a separate process
 * remote debugging (which should be done as an extension of debugging from a separate process)

I've also written a Python wrapper for my CD input and control library , [http://freshmeat.net/projects/libcdio/?branch_id=62870 libcdio]. Alas libcdio is much larger than what I've wrapped via SWIG so far. In particular missing is an interface to jitter and error correction interface for "Red Book" or audio CD's (libcdparanoia), and an interface for issuing MMC (Multi-Media Commands). I'd love to see someone complete this as a Summer of Code Project.

Some of my other GPL projects include [http://motif-pstree.sf.net xps], [http://ps-watcher.sf.net ps-watcher], [http://rm-old-files.sf.net remove/rename old files], and[http://recycle-logs.sf.net recycle log files] which can be found on [http://freshmeat.net] or [http://sourceforge.net]. I'm the current maintainer of the development branch for [http://www.gnu.org/software/vcdimager GNU VCDImager] and have wrote the navigable VCD plugin that's part of [http://xinehq.de xine].

I am enthusiastic about programming.

=== Ian Bicking ===
ianb@colorstudy.com

Web developer, [http://pythonpaste.org/ Paste], [http://sqlobject.org SQLObject], and a [http://blog.ianbicking.org blog]

I'm interested in web-related projects, particularly infrastructure involving [http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0333/ WSGI]. Education-related web projects would also be of interest to me.

=== Carl Bolz ===
No info posted yet.

=== Buddha Buck ===
blaisepascal@gmail.com

Will mentor one Soya3d-related project.

=== Hye-Shik Chang ===
No info posted yet.

=== Janez Demsar ===
janez.demsar@fri.uni-lj.si

I'm one of developers of Orange [http://www.ailab.si], a large machine learning/data mining library for Python. I'd mentor students interested in developing new data mining widgets, adding new machine learning methods to the suite, interfacing it with other Python libraries or applications (like prolog, R, Matlab)...

=== Jim Jewett ===
JimJJewett@gmail.com

 * client-side web projects, particularly improvements to the plucker www.plkr.org distiller.
 * standard library improvements (probably not new modules)
 * access control/capabilities (to allow running untrusted code, or to sandbox for optimizations)

In all cases, well-documented (doctest OK, doesn't need to be LaTex), clean, easily maintained and extended will trump extra functionality.

=== Richard Jones ===
richard@python.org

Developer of [http://roundup.sf.net/ Roundup], [http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi PyPI].

I'm interested in projects to improve Roundup or PyPI.


=== David Joyner ===
wdj@usna.edu

I'm interested in mentoring a project to
improve [http://sage.scipy.org SAGE].

=== Jonathan LaCour ===
No info posted yet.

=== Jean-Baptiste Lamy ===
jibalamy@free.fr

Maintainer of [http://www.soya3d.org/ Soya3d]. Will mentor one Soya3d-related project.


=== Robert Kern ===
robert.kern@enthought.com

I am mostly interested in projects that are of use for scientific development. Specifically, anything to do with numpy, scipy, matplotlib, Chaco, Mayavi, Traits, or IPython. More generally, I am also interested in mentoring projects of use to plotting frameworks, like math formula layout using TeX algorithms.


=== Andrew Kuchling ===
amk@amk.ca

I can help mentor improvements to the standard library, some web projects, and documentation projects.


=== Travis Oliphant ===
oliphant@ee.byu.edu

I am interested in mentoring projects related to NumPy or SciPy. In particular I would be interested in mentoring a project to extract the essential elements of NumPy into a basic array object for inclusion into Python. A future NumPy would then inherit from this basic array object.

=== Serge Rey ===
serge@rohan.sdsu.edu

I am interested in mentoring projects applying Python in the areas of Geographic Information Systems/Science (GIS), visualilzation and geocomputation. I direct the [http://regal.sdsu.edu/stars|STARS]] project which has a number of geocomputational and visualization components that could serve as SOC projects.


=== Arc Riley ===
arc@xiph.org

[http://www.soya3d.org/ Soya3d] developer from Ithaca, NY. I've also worked with many free software multimedia systems and web frameworks for Python.

I can mentor one or two Soya3d related projects.

=== Armin Rigo ===
No info posted yet.

=== William Stein ===
wstein@gmail.com

I am interested in any projects related to making Python the best
environment in which to do mathematics research and education.
Specifically, I'm interested in mentoring a project to
improve [http://modular.math.washington.edu SAGE].
