Is RPython really that bad? Lack of generators seems like the only serious issue to me. >> But with CPython I think we need the C versions. Unless we use Shed Skin to translate the RPython into C++. Or maybe we could write the code in Pyrex, generate C from that for CPython, then have a python script which strips out the type definitions to generate pure python for PyPy. tom -- Don't trust the laws of men.
