Python Enhancement Proposals (PEPs)
This is yet another attempt at reducing (or eliminating) the performance impact of the GIL on concurrency.
Lots of existing discussion here: https://discuss.python.org/t/pep-703-making-the-global-interpreter-lock-optional/22606
What are people's thoughts? I like the idea, but am concerned that it may fracture python development in the short term.
