I think it is one step closer to Lisp. I believe that it would be worth considering adding defmacro statement. Any syntax, including if, else, for, while, class, lambda, try, except, etc. would be implemented with defmacros. We would only need a minimalistic syntax, that would bootstrap a full Python syntax on startup. And as for speed, we all know how Lisp compares to Python. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
