Kivy still does this (though I suppose they branched the original PythonForAndroid) -- only the patches are pretty minor (mostly build stuff and a few changes here ad there for platform problems -- Android is not too bad as it is Linux natively). The same is true of Kivy's iOS python (different patches of course).
One other thing I noticed (in my occasional cross-platform foray): the stackless codebase probably should get a review of the platform-specific switching code at some point -- the Greenlet project (https://github.com/python-greenlet <https://github.com/python-greenlet>) originally a spinout of Stackless, has improved platform switching code (in terms of number of platforms and ease of building). > On Apr 2, 2015, at 6:16 AM, Kristján Valur Jónsson <[email protected]> wrote: > > Interesting.
