i think that PyPy's advances are not too much related to
language compat issues but rather to better GCs, stackless, 
JITting, optimisations, etc.  So i don't see the language 
compat as the central theme.  Also, we might be starting
sometime to release a pypy that can generate interpreters for
two different CPython versions - how would you name this? 

cheers,
holger
