In neovim ,how to do refactoring python code?
Hi, maintainer of rope here. There are a number of different options to use rope in Vim/Neovim, we've documented them in this page https://github.com/python-rope/rope/wiki/Rope-in-Vim-or-Neovim

Open Source Python libraries/projects that need contributions?
If you're looking for something with a bigger codebase, then the rope library in which pylsp-rope is based on is also welcoming of contributions.

Completion and auto imports
I think rope is the standard for refactoring, and should provide autoimports soon, though pyright might also be good for that.

What motivates you writing open source software?
However, my biggest and most popular open source project is one that I don't originally write, but rather I inherited a popular project that has been abandoned by their original author/maintainers. I use Python a lot, so I wanted to contribute to the community in a significant way, so unlike my other projects I do take the time promoting this project as well. I felt it's more like a community service for this project.

What are some interesting open source projects to contribute code to?
I am the maintainer rope and pylsp-rope. They are libraries for automated Python refactoring and to do that from any LSP-capable editors. We are always welcoming contributors of all levels.

Why IDEs are Important
Rope has first class support for Vim and it can do a move refactoring, among other refactorings. From this, this feature is available from python-mode and ropevim.

Why did you switch from another language to Rust? Do you regret not learning it earlier?
Okay this depends: if your code is static: perfectly possible for example with https://github.com/python-rope/rope (used for example by VS Code). If it's dynamic / generated via metaprogramming: I never tried it but I can't imagine that it'd work there, yes. However java tooling also can't do that because it simply doesn't support metaprogramming in any noteworthy way.
