Hi, I'm breaking out of the thread where this topic was started ("offtopic, ontopic, ...") because it is getting too long and unfocussed to follow.
The current state of the discussion seems to be that PyPy provides ways to talk to C code, but nothing as complete as CPython's C-API in the sense that it allows efficient two-way communication between C code and Python objects. Thus, we need to either improve this or look for alternatives. In order to get us more focussed on what can be done and what the implications are, so that we may eventually be able to decide what should be done, I started a Wiki page for a PyPy backend CEP (Cython Enhancement Proposal). http://wiki.cython.org/enhancements/pypy Please add to it as you see fit. In general, it is ok for a CEP to present diverging arguments, but please try to give them a structure in order to keep the overall document focussed.
