Hello,
I've been doing some tests on removing the GIL, and it's becoming clear that
some basic changes to the garbage collector may be needed in order for this
to happen efficiently. Reference counting as it stands today is not very
scalable.
I've been looking into a few options, and I'm leaning

Yes, despite being the one who suggested it, I've come to
the same conclusion myself. The problem should really be

Now I'm not sure what *you* mean by the C/Unix/Python
model. As far as newlines are conc

I mean precisely what Python means by the term: any of
"\r", "\n" or "\r\n" represent a newline, and no distinction

You only need to use that if you don't know what convention

I was using httplib to power my xml rpc script.
I had problems when I wanted to use SSL and I got this error:
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/httplib.py", line 1109, in recv

I figured out this was because of p
