I'd suggest explicitly reaching out to the Stackless folks to get their feedback. As I believe the switched to a newer compiler and VC runtime for Windows a while back, I suspect it will make their lives easier rather than harder, but it's still worth asking for their input. From a glance at the stackless repo, it looks like it still uses VS2008's project files (which pretty much means using MSVC 9), but I could have easily missed something.
Christian, what say you? Would having the project files from 3.5 backported to 2.7 (but still using MSVC 9) be positive, negative, or indifferent for Stackless?
I am very positive about your efforts. We wanted to create a Stackless 2.8 version end of 2013 with support for newer compilers, to begin with. After a while, we stopped this, and I left the branch in a private, unmaintained repository. https://bitbucket.org/stackless-dev/stackless-private/branch/2.8-slp Maybe you can make use of this, use it as you like it. You will get an invitation. cheers - Chris -- Christian Tismer :^) tismer@stackless.com Software Consulting : http://www.stackless.com/ Karl-Liebknecht-Str. 121 : http://www.pydica.net/ 14482 Potsdam : GPG key -> 0xFB7BEE0E phone +49 173 24 18 776 fax +49 (30) 700143-0023
