> Goals and topics of the sprint
> ------------------------------
>
>   - work on PyPy's JIT generator: we are refactoring parts of the
>     compiling logic, in ways that may also allow generating better
>     machine code for loops (people or aliens with knowledge on
>     compilers and SSA, welcome)
>
>   - work on the SPy VM, PyPy's Squeak implementation, particularly the
>     graphics capabilities
>
>   - work on PyPy's GameBoy emulator, which also needs graphics support
>
>   - trying some large pure-Python applications or libraries on PyPy  
> and
>     fixing the resulting bugs. Possibilities are Zope 3, Django and
>     others.
>
> * We are open to all sorts of other tasks during the sprint, just
>   propose something.
