for a college project, I proposed to create a compiler for python. I've read something about it and maybe I saw that made a bad choice. I hear everyone's opinion respond. If you want to do something useful, pick an existing project (several have already been named) that intrigues you and work on filling in one of the holes. I can imagine that this might be as educational as, for instance, compiling a toy subset of Python. The type inferencing algorithm of ShedSkin might be particularly interesting to study and improve. They also need a Windows maintainer... Michael

Not sure if you went to college Michael, but "Windows maintainer" is not something you can bribe your professors with ;-)
