Thanks. Me too - it is amazing how much I have forgotten since writing
it ;)

Pretty much stopped. No one is funding it, and no one has stepped up to
the plate and offered to help. It is too much for me to do alone,
especially on my own time.
I'd love to pick it back up, but unfortunately, I really can't see who's
interest it is in to fund this thing - Microsoft really have no further
interest which IMO is quite reasonable - they have generously funded
enough to prove that Python could work, but there is no reason they
should further fund Python over any (and therefore every) other open
source language, especially when they have their own commercial offerings.
Maybe Python should place an ad in the .singles newsgroups looking for a
sugar-daddy <0.1 wink>
Mark.
