Right now many people are developing Python 2 projects. They might be interested in a way to use Python 3 libraries in such a project. Right now some people are developing Python 3 projects. THey migh be interested in a way to use Python 2 libraries in such a project. This might in fact motivate more people to start a Python 3 project in the first place, as they aren't faced with having to port any libraries they may want to use. If you asked these people a question "would you like to be able to use Python 2 libraries in Python 3 projects" (or reversed) many of them might say 'yes'. But none of these people may feel they *need* a py2/py3 interpreter. :) > and how much they care about performance in such situations. Yes, such people might say "yes, if there isn't any other impact on my project" (like performance). Of course there are other consequences to adopting PyPy in a project, still.. Bringing up this idea once every while is my little contribution to the Python 3 effort. At present I don't want to go any further. :) Regards, Martijn _______________________________________________ pypy-dev mailing list pypy-dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
