To be absolutely clear, Nuitka and Cython are not implementations of the language... because you cannot run anything with them. Can you really call it a language runtime if you cant run anything with them? they are tooling. It is unhelpful to new users to list this tooling as an implementation when they cant do anything with them alone.

I'm not sure I follow. Cython runs all Python code, plus
manages extensions for more easily compiling functions
to C extensions. Nuitka tries to implement most of CPython.
Both support use of Python C extensions.

It's true that both need libpython - that's why I listed them
as "Alternative CPython" and not as "Alternative Python"
implementations :-)

Some implementations which are not listed on the page:

Alternative CPython:

HotPy - https://sites.google.com/site/makingcpythonfast/
Pyston - http://blog.pyston.org/
Cython - http://cython.org/
Nuitka - http://nuitka.net/

Python for embedded devices:

MicroPython - https://micropython.org/
This list is incomplete.
Could you provide pointers to missing items ?

Python in the browser:

Brython - http://www.brython.info/
Skulpt - http://www.skulpt.org/
as is this one (it does not even list the python in the cloud implementation 
used on the front page
of python.org)
You mean PythonAnywhere ?

I think there's a misunderstanding here. I just listed
alternative implementations which aren't already mentioned
on https://www.python.org/download/alternatives/.

Python in the cloud:

Trinket - https://trinket.io/python
Wakari - https://wakari.io/

Python for education:

Python Fiddle - http://pythonfiddle.com/
Geometry Zen - http://www.geometryzen.org/
Evaluzio - http://www.evaluzio.net/

More alternative CPython packagings:

StaticPython - https://code.google.com/p/pts-mini-gpl/wiki/StaticPython


The wiki page lists a few more:

There's currently a ticket open for the alternative implementations
page:

https://github.com/python/pythondotorg/issues/842

The page currently lists a few variants of Python implementations,
but is not up to date with more recent developments such as
Brython, Pyston, HotPy, etc.
Forgot the link to the page:

https://www.python.org/download/alternatives/

I think we should try to add all currently maintained variants
to the page.

Would someone like to help with this ?

We'd need ReST entries of the form:

* `PyPy <http://pypy.org/>`_ (A `fast <http://speed.pypy.org>`_ python
    implementation with a JIT compiler)

for each variant.

Thanks,
