The summer is over, so I have written a '''[[Media:Final_Report_on_Turtle_Blocks_Python_export.pdf|final report]]''' on my project. It gives an overview of the task, my ideas and their implementation, as well as the final status of the project.

I develop my project in a repository called [https://git.sugarlabs.org/~mzepf/gsoc-python-export gsoc-python-export] in the SugarLabs Gitorious system. If you would like to have a look at my latest progress, check out the <code>primitive-class</code> branch. (The <code>master</code> branch is only used for submitting merge requests to [https://git.sugarlabs.org/turtleart/mainline the main TurtleArt repository].)

I develop my project in a repository called [https://git.sugarlabs.org/~mzepf/gsoc-python-export gsoc-python-export] in the SugarLabs Gitorious system. If you would like to have a look at my latest progress, check out the <code>primitive-class</code> branch. It contains the latest '''stable''', i.e. working, version of TurtleArt and the export tool.
The branch <code>type-system</code> contains some work-in-progress on the type system for <code>Primitive</code> objects that I am currently introducing. It's a major change that affects how blocks are executed and exported to ASTs. Therefore, this branch should be considered '''unstable''', i.e. there is no guarantee that things will work or even that you'll get useful error messages. As soon as the type system is fully established and everything works again, this branch will be merged back into <code>primitive-class</code>.
The <code>master</code> branch is only used for submitting merge requests to [https://git.sugarlabs.org/turtleart/mainline the main TurtleArt repository].

*** Adjust the export functionality to the type system.
*** Start re-writing 'old' <code>Primitive</code>s to make use of the new type system.
*** Write new documentation about how to create a new block, including creating new <code>Primitive</code>s.
*** Comments from the 'Extra options' palette: This is especially difficult because Python's <code>ast</code> module does not support comments natively.
