Will this mean that there is some hope of python
getting native (as in included in standard
distribution) support for binary trees, like
rbtrees or avltrees. Or perhaps it has already
happened when I was'nt looking ?

It's not too hard to get the avl or rbtree module
via google, but having one in the standard
distribution would be much nicer.

Time to start the discussion about the _real_
