I feel that I've learned the language pretty well, but I'm having trouble thinking of a medium to large project to start. What are some projects that you have written in the past with Python?
Why start with a medium to large project when you can do something beneficial to the Python community at large.
The most immediately useful thing to do is to follow the bugs link on the python home page, and look for bugs in the standard libraries. Add a test case to that libraries test code (lib/python2.X/test/...) to test for the bug, then try and fix it. When you've done that, add patches to the bug report.
That's not only useful, but you spend time working on code that is pythonic, so you'll learn how the language is used instead of just what the language is.

I hadn't thought of that, that's a good idea. Thank you.
