Indeed, and it was around 2007, so I expect the authors to have been involved in completely different things for quite some time now... But I could try to contact them anyway. > STM is used under the hood to implement the channels and other > associated constructs.

Right now I'm focusing on Twisted instead of Stackless (with help from J.P. Calderone), but the idea is the same: hide it totally from the end programmer by using the existing API. Only the one tweaking the Twisted internals needs to know about it. The same would apply to Stackless.
