Hi Jeremy,
I can’t say much as it is nothing serious really. I was mostly being curious about the state of Python-based libraries for Processing.
However, if I ever take the leap I guess it would have to do with Computational Geometry. I think Processing is lacking major useful (and often simple) functions that even currently available libraries are missing. I would personally love to address this short-coming.
The target audience would be architecture students or design researchers. Python is a widespread language (along with C#) in this field of activity and I think it would make sense (at least from my point of view) to implement a module that would be easily portable to other Python-compatible and design-related environments.
It would also certainly be a great experience for a rookie like me to face the challenges of building my first library/module.
I try to do things to the best I can. If I ever code something that is meant to be used by others I would like it to be decently implemented, reasonably efficient and easily readable. I wish I could tell you I could do all of this in Java but the reality is that, at the present, it is way beyond my ability. I would prefer coming up with a toolkit whose impact is limited in terms of popularity (python-mode users only) but that does the job well rather than dashing off a weak and poorly-written piece of program for all.
