Python [nogil]
#4
It's indeed an interesting step of the Python developers. However, I think it is important to mention the the GIL-free Python is not ABI compatible with the GIL Python and, when writting C extensions, the programmer may need to take care of the locking when necessary.

This is probably not too much of a downside for daily "bread and butter" use, but it will interesting to see how well the new feature will be excepted and used.

Regards, noisefloor
