A couple reasons come to mind: * education * want to make it better (extend it, fix bugs, etc) * want to see how it relates to the implementation of other languages (Ruby, Perl, Tcl, etc) aki> CPython worked great for me. I don't want to read a large piece of aki> software, like CPython, unless it is really really necessary. Sure, but not everyone works at the Python layer. Which is a good thing, because if everyone confined themselves to Python code nobody would fix problems in the language implementation or enhance it. -- Skip Montanaro - s...@pobox.com - http://smontanaro.dyndns.org/ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
