The proposal of adding sys.implementation has come up a couple times
over the last few years. [1][2] While the reaction has been
overwhelmingly positive, nothing has come of it. I've created a
tracker issue and a patch:
http://bugs.python.org/issue14673
The patch adds a struct sequence that holds ("name" => "CPython",
"version" => sys.version_info). If later needs dictate more fields,
we can cross that bridge then.
Are there any objections? Considering the positive reaction and the
scope of the addition, does this need a PEP?
