"Doctor Dobb's Journal" would be very interested in articles --- 3000 words (plus or minus), plus some code examples and diagrams.
I was thinking more about on-line places such as oreillynet.com/python/, but DDJ would be better still.
The garbage collector: Java and Ruby both score points by having full garbage collection, so its availability in Python 2.0 (along with a discussion of the things that might break or change as a result) would be very interesting.
Arising out of lunch-time discussion, a comparison of how different FFIs (Lisp, Java, Smalltalk, others?) deal with garbage collection would be interesting, though perhaps unsuitable for DDJ, since the topic is a rather unfocused one. --amk
