Hi Holger,

i think for translate.py you rather need to run py.execnet over CPython or through a translated pypy-c - both of which should work fine.
I think you ran it through py.py which means starting a PyPy interpreter on top of CPython. Then running py.execnet.PopenGateway() would need to create another process that also runs through py.py - would be very slow - not sure it's worth trying to make it work.
So i suggest you continue your experiments with plain CPython or the translated pypy-c.
Well, suggesting to use pypy-c isn't really helpful, since his original problem was that PyPy doesn't translate :-).
good point - actually i just wanted to make the point that the translation tool chain (and py.execnet) should work fine on top of pypy-c, even if py.py fails. FWIW, I didn't see the other answers before i posted - using mutt over a high latency line i no fun, btw. holger
