Re: [Python-Dev] Improved thread switching

Even I, as a strong advocate for it's inclusion think I should finish the PEP and outline all of the questions/issues that may come out of it. On Thu, Mar 20, 2008 at 1:37 PM, Facundo Batista wrote:

Since we officially encourage people to spawn processes instead of threads, I think that this would be a great idea. The processing module has a similar API to threading. It's easy to use, works well, and most importantly, gives us some place to point people to when they complain about the GIL.

I'm +1 to include the processing module in the stdlib.

just avoid confussions, with these libraries with alike names, I'm meaning this [1] module, the one that emulates the semantics of threading module.

Does anybody has strong reasons for this module to not get included?
