[Python-Dev] yield * (Re: Missing operator.call)

[Calvin Spealman]

All of this debate is moot without the foundation of a common library
on which we would be building these coroutines. Any proposal of a
specific coroutine syntax is worthless without a time and community
tested coroutine implementation, which would be subject to the same
rigerous inclusion requirements as any other 3rd party library. Only
then, some time in the future, would any argument about a specific
syntax be worth real consideration.

Let's not jump the shark.
