I just flipped Leonardo Soto's commit bit this morning. Leo has been working with the Jython project for about a year now. He was instrumental in getting Django running on Jython, submitting patches to both the Django project and to the Jython project. Many of the patches to the Jython project fixed features in the very core of Jython that prevented Django from running. Leo continues his work on Django on Jython this summer with a Google Summer of Code grant.
Please join me in welcoming Leo aboard!

So Jim Baker and I have a talk at this years EuroPython Cool Stuff With Jython and I was hoping that some of you have cooler stuff than I do :). I'll be sure to give credit for demos I show -- and I'll promise a t-shirt for any demo code that I use -- though I have yet to have any made (stealing the idea from the JRuby guys) -- you'll have to wait until I have them :). The best place to send demo ideas and code is to the jython-dev or jython-users mailing list. I'll watch the comments here too of course.0

Jim Baker just published some great analysis of the remaining issues that are left before releasing an alpha of Jython 2.5. I'll add that we need to get re/sre support fixed so that we can run the 2.5 Lib tests and pull in CPython's 2.5 Lib. I just checked in some grammar changes that make the asm branch interpreter much better. So close... stay tuned!3
