eric: yes, that's relevant. Very happy it is discussed.
Contrary to some indication in the post, passing a context handle around
everywhere is NOT a burden at all. My system does exactly that.
I would note, API's which already require, say, an interpreter
New submission from john skaller :
Executive Summary: Python currently is not properly re-entrant. This comment
applies to the CAPI and particularly embedding. A fix is not possible in Python
3.x but should be scheduled for Python 4. On Linux all binary plugins are
broken as well.
The fault
