= Boost.Build Python port overall status =

== What works ==

 * Interface between Python and Boost.Jam build engine is finished.
 * Project loading and target declaration works
 * Top-level code is ported, including getting build request, loading configuration files and
   projects and building/cleaning.
 * A simple project with a 'make' rule loads and builds fine

== Status of porting code modules ==

The below table documents the state of files in the 'build' directory. There, 'done' means the file is totally done, 'almost' means the file is essentially done, but maybe we tweaks are necessary as other files are ported and 'pending' is not yet there.

== Short-term goals ==

 * Port remaining core modules.

== Medium-term goals ==

 * Design proper error reporting mechanism
 * Port all of tools
