After more thought, I'm leaving the existing tour mostly as-is and just making minor fixups such as expanding the example. The tour is supposed to provide a brief introduction and not try to cover all that is known. Instead, the Library Reference on threading should have extra sections on threading pragmatics (especially with respect to GUIs) and some non-toy examples to get someone started. Also, Extending and Embedding ought to cover the GIL, its significance, how to release/acquire, and the implications for multi-processors, etc. Several of the topics exceed my experience and some really need the collective experiences of various implementers, teachers, etc. So, it might be worthwhile to have a wiki to collect the useful thoughts and use that as a basis for improving the rest of the docs. The threading docs are rather like a car manual that presumes that you already know how to drive. Raymond
