RPython.

Some of those Python compilers are obsolete, unmaintained or
experimental. Others are not. But either way, it is certainly not true
that Python is written in C. One specific Python compiler happens to be
written in C, that is all.

Apart from IronPython, what constituency do these alternative implementations of Python have that would raise them above the level of interesting experiments?
