2.7 only came to my mind because: * 2.7 is still supported for 2 years * After those 2 years, no distro will magically drop 2.7 because there's still lots of legacy modules and applications using 2.7. I'm not sure about other Operating Systems though. * Dual 2.7 + 3.x support is doable but we'd have to evaluate if we really need it (as far as I know, 3.x is on every system available). You seemed a bit reserved about going full 3.x a while back What's the expected time to be spend per week on the project? We have other bugs open, maybe I bring myself up to date on those. GSoC is a bit fuzzy on what's "good enough" and what not, if you compare for example GNU Guix and the projects Debian or FreeBSD offer. > On 02/16/2018 11:06 AM, n...@crash.cx wrote: >> Hi all, >> >> we take initiative applications as well as applications on topics >> we officially offered ones, right? >> >> So let's say I wanted to work the summer on what I looked into >> earlier this year and last year, reimplementing the python based >> parts of the GNUnet testsuite in standardized python-2.7 >> testsuites, would there be a mentor and an official GNUnet <-> >> GNU <-> GSoC relation (work the summer, document it, get payed >> (as far as I understand GSoC))? >> >> I'm not 100% sure if I can do it (waiting for some job interviews >> at the moment), but if we would have a mentor for this I would >> write an official application for it. >> >> Thanks, >> NG >> > > _______________________________________________ > GNUnet-developers mailing list > GNUnet-developers@gnu.org > https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnunet-developers > -- ng0 :: https://crash.cx A88C8ADD129828D7EAC02E52E22F9BBFEE348588 :: https://crash.cx/keys/ _______________________________________________ GNUnet-developers mailing list GNUnet-developers@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnunet-developers
