A while ago I started a port of the CPython devguide but I never got it to the point that I felt I could release it. I've decided that it's better to have an incomplete version out there vs. having no Jython devguide at all, so I'm doing a soft launch. It contains much CPython specific instructions that don't actually apply to Jython and it certainly has gaps. Some of the gaps are flagged by TODO notes. Please feel free to comment or, best of all, send patches! Patches can be made against the main devguide (for enhancements that apply to both CPython and Jython) or, for Jython only changes: the Jython fork.

Adconion to fund Jython 2.7
I now have a contract with Adconion Media Group to produce a 2.7 version of Jython by July 15 of this year. It all started when my colleague Miki Tebeka asked how long it was going to be before a Jython 2.7 was going to become available. At the time I did not have a very happy answer to that one.

Jython dev notes part II - Adding a New Builtin Type
Releases of Python (and so releases of Jython) sometimes add new built-in types. In 2.6, a new such buitin is the "bytes" type. In the 2.x series, "bytes" is just a synonym for "str".
