This is what I'm working on (though from an academic context :), and
I've been in somewhat of a holding pattern recently - doing some small
experiments with CPython, reading and following mailing lists/IRC,
trying to figure out when PyPy is finished enough that I can start
doing work.

Of course, if there's something I can do to help PyPy get to this
point, I'll help.  Has anyone written anything about the (at least
near-term) plans for PyPy in the area of concurrency/locking?
