This list is subscriber only, replying to both lists won't do much.

Whether someone would choose Lua or Stackless Python for coroutines is
probably a matter of preference for the language itself.  But one
thing Stackless might provide that Lua does not, is the ability to
block C function calls as well as Python function calls given that we
shift C stack sections in and out with tasklets.  Or the ability to
persist and unpersist in a cross platform way, running tasklets.

Cheers,
Richard.
