Yes, I saw the bug report and its patch implementing the import lock per module (mentioned in my initial email) and watched the presentation by Brett Cannon (BTW, I could not find the diagram explained during the presentation, anyone knows if it's available somewhere?). > Backporting such huge change is difficult and risky. > > Upgrading to Python 3.3 is more future proof and don't require to hack > Python 2.7. I wish I could use Python 3.3 but unfortunately, Zope 2 does not support it. What about the other solution I suggested though?
