Stackless Python in Commercial Game Project!

[Christian Tismer]

Hello Pythoneers,

Stackless Python and Continuations have been around
for some time now. It has been used by Will Ware
and Just van Rossum, to build microthreads upon.

Today, I'm happy to announce the first upcoming commercial
application for Stackless Python:

Crowd Control Productions is developing a so-called MMPOG
(massively-multiplayer, online game). The name is EVE,
and it appears to become a really great space game,
creating visible virtual worlds that are populated by
the whole playing community. They are still in
the planning and evaluation phase, but the decision for
Python and UThreads via Continuations has been drawn.

Have a look at the bottom of this page:

Many thanks to Hilmar Veigar Petursson from CCP for setting
links to Pythons and the Stackless Homepage.
I will back-link to them very soon, and they get free support.

cheers - chris
