[LispM-Hackers] Python GC

[James A. Crippen]

I just discovered another reason to prefer Python over Perl -- Python has
a real GC available, a cycle detecting reference counter as well as a
generational GC with 3 generations.  The GC can also be controlled by
the user and used as a leak detector.

So now you have another reason to use Python for your simple scripting
needs -- at least if you can't use Lisp.

The only thing I'm waiting for is a Metaobject Protocol... :)
