I am inclined towards the notion that all new additions to Stackless should be developed as third-party solutions, including Kristjan's proposed Stackless tools library. At some later stage, once they have most importantly actually been worked on and have been proven to be suitable, then inclusion into the Stackless distribution might be considered. The exception being where the standard library is being fleshed out to deal with the existing functionality not working or lacking proper Stackless supoort.. for instance, the existing debuggers. One of the things I appreciate most about Stackless is that is is a stable set of minimal functionality done with a minimal amount of changes to the underlying Python source code.
