I'd love to contribute (been looking for a Python project to contribute all this while) but I'm fairly new and haven't much a clue. I guess the best way to start is to get the project and play around with it but I was hoping if you have any advice?
Jump into #pypy on freenode, we're mostly working on getting our 2.7 implementation passing all tests (we merged that branch into defaul this week), so there are various tasks in: fixing our implementation of stdlib modules, interpreter level fixes, new methods on builtin types, and other sorts of things!
read through some of the wiki. Guess I'll jump into the irc channel this weekend and ask questions as I go?
Will people assign specific test/task to me or do I just pick a few?
This is exactly why this thing caught my eye. And this is not just a python project, but an interpreter for the language, so should give you a great experience with the language itself.
