[15:37] <lrojas> hi all, can someone give me some help regarding defining a function with multiple parameters? i would like something like def foo(*args, t=0) so that when i call foo("a","b") i get a third param t=0
[15:38] <agronholm> you're going to have to wait for jython 3.3 for that
[15:38] <lrojas> ok, what are my alternatives today?
[15:39] <agronholm> def foo(*args, **kwargs):
[15:39] <lrojas> there is no way to include a default value for a key argument...
[15:40] <lrojas> ?
[15:40] <agronholm> not if you use *args
[15:40] <lrojas> how about, can i pass a list as a parameter?
[15:40] <agronholm> of course
[15:40] <agronholm> you can pass anything as a parameter
[15:40] <lrojas> ok
[15:41] <agronholm> but in foo you can do t = kwargs.get('t', 0)
[15:41] <agronholm> that's pretty close to what you originally wanted
[15:41] <lrojas> thanks :)

[20:50] <headius> hi guys
[20:50] <headius> I'm interested in a status update
[21:37] <fwierzbicki> hey headius!
[21:37] <headius> fwierzbicki: hey man, ltns!
[21:37] <headius> how goes?
[21:37] <fwierzbicki> headius: I plan to put out a 2.7 alpha this month
[21:38] <headius> that's great...been mostly focusing on compat?
[21:38] <fwierzbicki> and I hope to get a production out in July
[21:38] <fwierzbicki> headius: yeah compat only
[21:38] <headius> that's great though
[21:38] <fwierzbicki> headius: but jimbaker and a student that goes by shashank here have done some invokedynamic work
[21:38] <headius> been seeing more libs require 2.7 lately
[21:39] <headius> shashank spoke at JVMLS I think
[21:39] <headius> I forget how it was going then, but I'd like to hear about progress
[21:39] <fwierzbicki> headius: yeah it's the last stop for Python 2 - it looks like it will be the standard for a while
[21:39] <fwierzbicki> headius: I think he is speaking at the next one as well - I plan to come as an observer
[21:40] <fwierzbicki> (that is not a speaker - I don't have anything interesting to say to that crowd :)
[21:40] <headius> yeah, I should be there, possibly doing a workshop on indy with jochen and remi
[21:41] <fwierzbicki> headius: very cool - I'm going to have to go pick up my daughter from school but I'll be back in a little while
[21:41] <headius> ok, I'll probably be here
[21:51] * wainersm (~wainersm@177.103.139.177) Quit (Quit: Ex-Chat)
[21:56] <fwierzbicki> headius: ok I'm back :)
[21:56] <headius> hello again!
[21:56] <headius> are you still on your contract/grant/whatever?
[21:57] <fwierzbicki> headius: hi there again!
[21:57] <fwierzbicki> headius: yeah I have until July 15 - which is my projected release date for 2.7
[21:57] <headius> cool, pretty nice gig
[21:57] <headius> who's the benefactor?
[21:57] <fwierzbicki> headius: yeah I'm very happy
[21:58] <fwierzbicki> http://www.adconion.com/
[21:58] <fwierzbicki> they are a hybrid Java/Python shop
[21:59] <fwierzbicki> and a former coworker of mine who works there now helped me connect to them
[22:00] <headius> ahh very cool...perfect sort of place to fund this work
[22:01] <headius> any thoughts on what happens after july 15?
[22:01] <fwierzbicki> headius: I may get an extension with a lower % of Jython time and more company work
[22:02] <fwierzbicki> headius: any suggestions if that doesn't work out ?
[22:03] <fwierzbicki> My next plans are to go for Jython 3.3 and hopefully start investing some time into invokedynamic -- it will be easy to say that Jython3 will require a minimum of Java 7
[22:04] <headius> hmmm, nothing at the moment, but I'd like to see jython get back in the perf game
[22:04] <fwierzbicki> headius: me too! PyPy is having all of the fun there
[22:04] <headius> pypy's running away with it :)
[22:04] <headius> hah
[22:04] <headius> yes
[22:04] <fwierzbicki> If your results with JRuby are any indication, we should be able to compete
[22:05] <headius> I'm sure it's possible
[22:07] <fwierzbicki> anyway it looks good for a continuation with Adconion so far, and since they are Jython users I expect the company work will also be fun :)
[22:08] <headius> yeah that sounds great
[22:08] <headius> jimbaker: around?
