The first open-source Python project review is now up. It's for a library called alchy
,
a project I very much enjoyed reviewing. More reviews are on the way, so don't
worry if you emailed me and I haven't responded yet.

Interestingly, this was the first time I made use of the review
application
that I wrote but the community now maintains. I've found the
quality of the application has improved, and I'm truly impressed by what the
various contributors have been able to accomplish with no central authority. The
CONTRIBUTORS.md file (which I know to be incomplete), has the following
contents:
So thanks to those on that list (and to those who forgot to add their name).
"Upgrading" the review
app was seamless. I basically just did a git pull
and was able to use the resulting directory as-is to serve
reviews.jeffknupp.com. Pretty awesome
considering the number of changes that complete strangers have made to it!
Free project reviews!
Remember, if you have an open-source Python project, send me an email with a link to the source and documentation and I'll do my best to review it on reviews.jeffknupp.com.
Also, if you're looking for an open source Python project to contribute to, the site itself is an open source Flask application that can be found at github.com/jeffknupp/review/. I accept any pull request (as long as it doesn't delete functionality), so the barrier to becoming a contributor is pretty low. Please fork!
