CPython moves both too fast and too slowly as one of the more common causes of conflict both within the python-dev mailing list, as well as between the active CPython core developers and folks that decide that participating in that process wouldn't be an effective use of their I still consider that to be the case, but it's also a point I've spent a lot of time reflecting on in the intervening years, as I wrote that original article while I was still working for Boeing Defence Australia. The following month, I left Boeing for Red Hat Asia-Pacific, and started gaining a redistributor level perspective on open source supply chain management While it's a gross oversimplification, I tend to break down CPython's use cases as follows (note that these categories aren't fully distinct, they're just aimed at focusing my thinking on different factors influencing the rollout of new software features and impossible, but upgrades to the underlying platform may be feasible. Examples: are considered routine, and no more concerning than any other code change. Examples: components, but those upgrades occur on a cycle measured in years, rather than weeks or months. Examples: them, even if you forget to uninstall them, you probably won't reinstall them on a new device) even if you don't personally grasp all the intricacies of that domain yet. Examples: Ultimately, the main audiences that CPython and the standard library specifically serve are those that, for whatever reason, aren't adequately served by the combination of a more limited standard library and the installation of explicitly declared third party To oversimplify the above review of different usage and deployment models even further, it's possible to summarise the single largest Typical developer behaviours when using Python as a scripting language include: version, or else a statement of the expected execution environment. If dependencies outside the standard library are needed, they're expected to be provided by the environment being scripted (whether that's an operating system, a data an*lysis platform, or an application that
