I sure hope not.  We need to come up with better APIs and a
better interface from Python code.  The current interface is not
efficiently implementable in Jython, AFAIK.  We also need to
figure out how to make things play nicely with stackless.  IMHO,
a PEP is required.

My plan now is to look at how stackless works as I now understand
some of the issues.  Since no stackless light patch exists
writing one may be a good learning project.  Its still a long
road to 2.2. :-)
