A circular and therefore useless definition. Given any implementation X and a feature Y not supported by X, one can equally well say that either 1) X is not an implementation of Python because Y is part of "standard Python"; or 2) Y is not part of "standard Python" because implementation X doesn't support it. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
