PyPy Status Blog: STM update: back to threads?

PyPy Status Blog: STM update: back to threads?. The discussion and development continue to progress - and the discussion is returning to the old thread model, only expanded with a function to define atomic blocks of code. And all of this in such a way that the code would even run under normal CPython (though then of course without the advantages of STM, since there is no STM in CPython, there is still the GIL) but still makes sense to use multicore architectures. I like it more and more and I hope it will soon land in the PyPy Main Branch.
