Glad your excited - and kudos to the user who submitted the multiprocessing patch to me, I would not have thought of it on my own probably!

It simply was not going to be ready - and with the amount of churn and changes going on in that space, it was felt that the community would be better served with something stable, later (but still install-able via pip/etc) then something un

Well, the Nasuni product is aimed at the business, not personal users. There's a variety of cloud-gateway products aimed at home/personal users.

Eh, by "cool VM work" sure - if you mean unladen-swallows JIT. Anything else has a year+ lag time for inclusion to be seriously considered. Also, the funny thing with the GIL (even as the maintainer of multiprocessing) is that it's never bo

You see - the reason your hit list of itches were not fixed were because no one stepped in to do them - this isn't anyones fault, but it doesn't mean important things were not fixed. Instead, the other itches (such as bytes vs. strings/unic

And that was always the plan. 3.0 adoption was supposed to take several years . So it's all good - the big thing which needs to occur before most people will is some of the big libs need to port over.

This is coming this year, as far as I have been told.

Why on earth would PyPy be included? If GIL-Removal, PyPy, pip and virtualenv being included is your "must have" list, you're going to be waiting long after everyone else has moved onward :) For me, it's simply "I just need my dependencies"

When talking about an interpreter; I find those terms completely acceptable. So long as the language itself continues to work, and I can still use C extensions.

We in python-dev land have been working on discussing various help documents and things associated with the website. For now, if you have lots of 2.x dependencies - use 2.x - it's stable and well supported by the community. If you're doing

If someone were to submit a patch nuking the GIL, I doubt it would be a language change, ergo, the language moratorium (a block on new syntax) does not apply.

Nothing is impossible - not even GIL removal. Just very hard.

No, it would not get into 3.2, and it doesn't offer speed improvements at this time. It's a great experiment right now . It's probably a year+ off from ever seeing core, if ever.

Good to hear (thanks)! Alas, multiprocessing will always be slagged by the serialization and deserialization of objects. Note, I'm the maintainer, so I'm not trolling :)

Very, very interesting. I'm going to have to suck it up and pull it from sourceforge - I'll be very interested to see how they implemented the message passing and "safe object" stuff. With time this could change things quite a bit for pyt

I can personally attest to the fact Celery is pretty awesome, and a nice compliment to your Django app. The author - Ask is also doing some awesome things with multiprocessing in general - check out http://pypi.python.org/pypi/billiard/

The answer is simple: The key is never stored in the cloud. Period. The key is in your control - we don't trust the cloud for storing keys. In fact we do not trust ourselves (we do not keep a copy, unless you choose to give it to us). The

Yes - we wish to keep the focus of the challenge on the data within the cloud. We fully understand that in reality, most attacks do not occur directly against encrypted data. The idea we are trying to get across is that the data we store, i
