I don't think growing committer numbers is CPython's #1 problem. CPython needs *relevant*contributions: Hypothetically speaking, I'd wager that someone writing an industrial strength concurrent garbage collector is *far more likely* to share Antoine's attitude. ALL developer's who fall into that category are being put off by the current climate on python-dev and python-ideas, and there's no shortage of other languages to contribute to. Likewise, I don't think PEPs are the problem either: Python already has too many features (recently I found myself thinking that C++ is a really nice small language :). Stefan Krah
