Mostly me; I'm trying to decrease my CPU load and have dropped a
number of activities.  I've mostly lost my taste for language hackery,
and find that the discussions are getting more trivial and less
interesting.  Adding Unicode support, for example, was a lengthy and
at times bloody discussion, but it resulted in a significant new
capability.  Debate about whether 'A in dict' is the same as 'A in
dict.keys()' or 'A in dict.values()' is IMHO quite dull.  Twhe unit
testing debate was the last one I cared about to any significant
degree.
