-Unlike the earlier [[http://drupy.net/|Drupy]] efforts by Brendon Crawford, the goal is *not* to build a line-for-line by using PHP-to-Python port of Drupal (Drupy 1), or even a close remake on top of Django (Drupy 2). Even if the project ever reaches actual usability for actual web site projects, it will not offer an API identical to Drupal, which would be a rather pointless endeavour anyway, as has [[http://www.contenthere.net/2008/06/python-gets-drupy.html|already]] been explained elsewhere.+Unlike the earlier [[http://drupy.net/|Drupy]] efforts by Brendon Crawford, the goal is *not* to build a line-for-line port by using PHP-to-Python port of Drupal (Drupy 1), or even a close remake on top of Django (Drupy 2).

   - To reach a sufficient degree of Python-fu. OSInet has long been a PHP-only shop (OK, with a touch of Ruby), but remaining stuck with one language is a sure way to freeze intellectually. Hopefully, building such a project will require enough Python knowledge and practice to be acquired, while not messing with other projects already managed by Python knights during the learning process.   - To reach a sufficient degree of Python-fu.

 But when it come to actual code, it should be online in a public repository soon (still hesitating between the public OSInet repo and various alternatives like Github, Gitorious, Launchpad...), and the project will gladly accept participation, especially by volunteers with similar "learning" goals, so we can grow our knowledge together. Python experts need not apply: they would likely be annoyed by beginner bugs and unpythonic choices: after all, it is a Drupal DX project, not one more perfect Python web framework. There already is at least [[http://djangoproject.com|one]] of these. But when it come to actual code, it should be online in a public repository soon (still hesitating between the public OSInet repo and various alternatives like Github, Gitorious, Launchpad...), and the project will gladly accept participation, especially by volunteers with similar "learning" goals, so we can grow our knowledge together.
