Yup. After all, the answer to the question "Which modules in the standard library are thread-safe?" is "threading, queue, logging and functools" (at least, that's my best guess). Any effort to "fix" threading in Python is pretty much doomed until the authoritative answer to that question includes most of the standard library. <mike -- Mike Meyer <mwm@mired.org> http://www.mired.org/ Independent Software developer/SCM consultant, email for more information.
