It looks like Python might end up with a sandbox execution environment
after all. -------- Original Message --------
Hi, John, Have you seen the following thread on the new python-3000 mailing list? http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-3000/2006-April/thread.html#567 I remembered Mitch talking about this in his PyCon keynote and also found his blog mention of it: http://blogs.osafoundation.org/mitch/000559.html Is there possibly OSAF interest in this? It seems like a good opportunity to try to get a real restricted execution capability into Python 3000 (which is now under active development a no longer purely mythical in case you didn't know!) Actually, from Mitch's blog it doesn't sound like this was really his own personal interest but it seemed worth emailing you in case it's of interest for Chandler longer-term. It certainly would benefit anyone wanting to keep an app reasonably safe from malicious or accidental pollution from extension scripts written in Python. Hope you're doing well!
