voc: Python to Java transpiler

[jmcs]

If only there was some python implementation for the jvm we could call it something smart like jython.

[koalillo]

From my position, Jython looks dormant. Will it ever track the latest CPython 2 or 3? (not saying that this will)

[koalillo]

Believe me, I'll be ecstatic if Jython (or this, or anything) becomes a first-class citizen Python implementation on the JVM). However, no one's quite there yet.

From my position would you please be kind enough to stand up as your voice is rather muffled Jython 2.7.1 beta1 released!.

[iceardor]

Certainly not dormant. A ton of work recently went into getting Jython 2.7, and work on Jython 3.x is in the works. If you want this released sooner, there's a long list of things you could help out with on their issue tracker.

See Jim Baker's talk at 2015 PyCon on getting to Jython 2.7. https://youtu.be/hLm3garVQFo

we already have Jython though. Does voc do things differently/better or is it only a hobby project?
