This and the C extension interface are the two big Python things I've got on my "must peer deeply into" list. Are there other places I should be concentrating on?

What do you say I write up a longish email explaining quickly how Python objects work, and how the Python interpreter and extension code works with them ? I think it'd help with getting us talking about the same thing when we say 'interpreter' or 'type' :-) And the beauty of my being in a different timezone is that noone else is posting right now, so I can take the time without someone else doing it spread out over four posts in separate subthreads :)
That'd be most helpful, thanks. Dan --------------------------------------"it's like this"------------------- Dan Sugalski even samurai dan@sidhe.org have teddy bears and even teddy bears get drunk
