As a bystander, what *I* care most about is that Python ends up with a
single approach to creating and distributing extensions. What concerns
me most about this whole discussion, is that it seems like no-one is
attempting to compromise, and participants are pulling further apart
rather than converging on a solution.

Two solutions is significantly worse than none, in my book.

Paul.
