Python is a great language. We all know. But I have tried implementing Python into C/C++ applications, and have a) had a lot of trouble getting it running properly and b) it is slow, compared to other languages, like LUA. What is my idea, is to make a Python implementation made to be embedded into applications.. It will have these features: a) Small footprint. b) Easy-to-use, but still advanced API. c) Stackless. d) A smaller standard library. e) Fast. The smaller footprint is, so that it will use minimal resources possible, leaving more for the underlying application. The API is the most important thing, really, as this distro will be made for embedding. It will not have any compiler features, just an interpreter. Stackless Python is - as we know - faster than Python. Another good reason to use it in embedding. A lot of the standard library is seldom used; we only need the core functions. Fast, of course! It needs to be the fastest interpreter ever written (at least fast). Hope you have any ideas/comments! ~Knut
