However, there is still *some* connection with the frame, though it's subtle. In particular the LC (using PEP v3 terms) for a generator is tied to that generator's frame (it becomes the top of the EC stack whenever that generator is resumed). I don't think we should call this out in the naming scheme though. -- --Guido van Rossum (python.org/~guido)
