moving to (basic) C++ might also be a good idea (in 3.0, perhaps). is any- one still stuck with pure C89 these days ?

Some of us actually prefer working with plain C when we have a choice, and don't consider ourselves "stuck" with it.

My personal goal in life right now is to stay as far away from C++ as I can get. If CPython becomes C++-based (C++Python?) I will find it quite distressing, because my most favourite language will then be built on top of my least favourite language.
