Summary:
 * Computer Janitor 2.0
 * PEP 3147
 * Packaging Python libraries
 * Many bug fixes to various Python packages

I've become more active in direct Ubuntu development as well, starting with
the [[https://edge.launchpad.net/~barry/+archive/python|package of several of mine and other Python packages]]. Through my work at Canonical, I've worked
on a major upgrade to
[[https://edge.launchpad.net/computer-janitor|Computer Janitor]] and will be
contributing to much more during Maverick development. I drafted and
implemented [[http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3147/|PEP 3147]] for upstream
Python specifically to make Python packaging easier on Debian and Ubuntu.
I've engaged the debian-python mailing list to help bridge the gap between
Debian, Ubuntu and Python upstream.

Some of my plans for future contributions to Ubuntu are outlined on the team's
[[https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FoundationsTeam/Maverick/Planning|UDS-M]] planning
page. These include more development in upstream Python for better deployment
on Ubuntu, involvement in the
[[https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DistributedDevelopment|Ubuntu Distributed Development]]
initiative to make development more natural and easier to approach, and lots
more packaging of various Python libraries. As part of my work for Canonical,
I expect to be involved in Software Center Ratings and Reviews and lots of
other interesting initiatives.		 I work a lot on various [[http://www.python.org|Python]] issues in Ubuntu, Debian, and upstream. I do other stuff too.

Hi. I'm Barry Warsaw. I have worked for Canonical since January 2007. For my first three years, I was on the Launchpad Registry team, where I was primarily responsible for the implementation, care, and feeding of Launchpad mailing lists. I did a bunch of other things registry-related as well. In early 2010, I joined the Ubuntu Platform Foundations team.

Want to know about the latest developments in Python on Ubuntu?

Brief background

I've been a core Python developer since 1995, and worked with Guido in PythonLabs at various previous employers. I've written many independent Python libraries, was instrumental in the development of the email package, was lead maintainer of Jython for a while, and have had my hand in many aspects of the Python community and running the python.org infrastructure. I was release manager for Python 2.6 and 3.0 and a few earlier versions.

I'm probably best known for being the lead developer on GNU Mailman, a mailing list manager, for which I won the Second Annual Antonio Pizzigati Prize. In fact, it is GNU Mailman that powers Launchpad's mailing lists.

In my previous incarnations I did a lot of Emacs development.

You can find out more about me at my personal website http://barry.warsaw.us including my GPG and SSH public keys, and some of my non-computer related interests. Yeah, I do have a blog.

Ubuntu Development
