Hi Friends, in Hildesheim, I struggled for many hours to get my new marshal module to compile and integrate. Finally, after removing all problematic things where the annotator or the rtyper complained about, I figured out that the current PyPy SVN version did not compile at all. Today, I tried again, after I brought marshal some quality levels further. Still, PyPy does not translate, neither on Windows ( with my patches of course) nor on Debian Linux. The property to be translatable to a C binary is much more valuable than it is treated. I would really like to see some notation of that, like tagging a PyPy version as translatable. I think we are lacking something, here. Due to this fact, I will now carelessly check marshal in, without disabling it. This has cost Samuele and me way too many hours, although I figured out that PyPy was not translatable at all, at that time. (Yes, we had many bugs and removed them). Please, I want a principal decision about this. Either breaking PyPy must be forbidden, or check-ins must be tagged whether they do compile or not. Random results about this are not acceptable for me, because this takes very much time. - chris -- Christian Tismer :^) <mailto:tismer@stackless.com> tismerysoft GmbH : Have a break!
