Hi Python-community,

The Stackless Python beta has been ported to the Python 2.2.2 release, one day after the announce.

It could have been even faster, but I had to work a lot on typeobject.c, which had been backported from 2.3. My own patches to that are now very tiny and will be submitted, soon.

Changes to Stackless: The option to build statically has been re-enabled. Supported platforms are now Windows, Mac OS X, Linux-X86, Cygwin, SunOS Sparc with gcc, PPC Unix, S390 & S390x. A scheduler object with overridable strategies has been prepared (functionality will be added these days) Metatypes can have slots (se above).

See http://www.stackless.com/ for details, CVS access etc. Binaries for Python 2.2.2 have been built and include _tkinter.

CVS access to the last 2.2.1 version is possible, check out with the tag "last_2_2_1".

good luck - chris
