OK, sorry for being dense, but just to be absolutely clear.

You are going to create a Python compiler that will take existing
Python code and output a byte code file. (I assume the byte code
is not standard Python byte code?) And I assume the execution
environment for the bytecode is part of your neos system?

If that's correct, then how do you propose to deal with
regular Python byte code? And what would the Python disassembler
produce - Python assembler instructions or neos?
