• weakrefs/finalization
  • ~~weakref. Callback support is gone.~~
  • ~~deathqueue, replacing callback functionality~~
  • ~~WeakKeyDictionary and WeakValueDictionary, reimplemented using deathqueue~~
  • ~~weakref.Proxy~~
    • caching proxies. Creates a bottleneck, and I allow proxies to non-shareable objects, making implementation more trouble than it's worth.
  • ~~Finalizer class. This is blocked by threaded imports.~~
  • generator cleanup (ie raising GeneratorExit)
• thread-safe imports and shareable modules
  • ~~shareddict~~
  • packages
• ~~transactions (I'm scrapping them for now)~~
• Shareability
  • ~~Many things have been marked as shareable.~~
  • There's still large gaps though, and several bodges (such as builtins). Warning: the bodges mean it's easy to corrupt and crash the interpreter!
• Monitors
  • ~~Core functionality~~
  • ~~wait function~~
  • MonitorSpace.enterlocal() method
  • ~~conditions~~
  • ~~Deadlock detection~~
• Cancellation
  • ~~time.sleep()~~
  • file reading - works, but bodged
  • ~~conditions~~
• ~~Tracing GC~~
• ~~GIL removal~~
