Being that a lot of Whimsy involves file manipulation, running svn and
git commands, and using the LDAP API, those are probably the key areas
to get familiar with for the relevant programming language. Ruby has a
lot of neat syntax for executing commands like a shell (similar to
Perl in that regard

A Python script would not be able to call into the libraries that
Whimsy has. Depend

Technically, Whimsy is running in an Apache server, so any CGI scripts
should theoretically work. I'm not sure how that could or would be set
up, though.

Hi -
I’ve started investigating providing project information for whimsy based on
clutch2.py from the incubator in these two categories:
(1) Releases. I plan to generate a json from scanning the
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release using `svn ls`
(2) Repositories. I’ll use the gitbox.apa
