My understanding is that it works from Python source, not bytecode, the intent being that it should eventually work with Jython.

Glad of this. But anyway is a long road from here. It seems that PyChecker2 code is ~10 days old. I have not seen any explicit statement about Jython and until Jython 2.2 is out there is no support for the needed subset of Lib/compiler on our side.

Of course this approach is easier to support for Jython.

And, no, I'm not informed of everything that happens in Python-land, I have not seen any announcement about PyChecker2 here or on comp.lang.python, or on jython's lists.

regards.
