The best way to make people stop complaining about the GIL and start using process-based multiprogramming is to provide solid, standardized support for process-based multiprogramming.
100% agreed. I needed a portable way to know if a program was already running (and then to send it a simple command), the only simple solution I found was to listen on a local TCP socket and store the port number in a file in a known location. Not very elegant IMO.

Antoine.
