No, I'm just excited about it and want to share. I definitely think that discouragement of new ideas, successes, and personal expressions is a weakness that society has, and something that c-l-py is missing as well. I want to encourage them in other people so I will do it myself. As for the practicality of this module, I am definitely receiving skepticism from the group. Further, its feasibility is in question. For instance, no one has pointed out, and I only came across last night, that IPC synchronization is non-trivial and possibly platform- dependent. Of course it's a prerequisite for the advance of any IPC mod, so I'm glad I did not release an ANN. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
