Regarding the stuff you mentioned - yah, it'll be interesting to see
where PyPy goes. As for embeding another language in Galcon - I did
consider embedding lua - it's pretty secure. But after mulling it
over, I figured I'd much rather have python bots, and warn users about
the danger of downloading and running strange bots.
Phil,
I'm not sure how big your game's community is, but I had a suggestion
You could have some volunteer python programmers look over the bots
sumbitted and give them a rating.
So the users could see online before they download a bot what the
'apparent' security risk is.
Or you could even let the users rate the bots themselves.
