Python has a rich toolset for taking on concurrency challenges, and many of these tools have their own mailing list. However, concurrency solutions tend to involve working with these tools in combination, and it might be nice to have a place for higher level community discussion across this toolset.
I see lots of interesting comments about concurrency scattered across Twitter, G+, and blog postings about gevent, 0mq, celery, multiprocessing, stackless, etc, so I know there is plenty to talk about. I don't want to shut down those scattered discussions; Twitter and G+ are great fun. However, concurrency-sig might be a good home for more in-depth discussions on such topics; currently this list seems dormant. According to the archive, the last postings were in 2009 about the GIL. Why not try to reboot this list, and send out an announcement to call for participation here? I've bcc'd a number of people who might be interested, but may not know about the concurrency-sig list. Maybe there is another such list which I don't know about. If so, please let me know, and I'll post it back to this thread in the concurrency-sig so people looking at the archives will know where they need to go. _______________________________________________ concurrency-sig mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/concurrency-sig
