O.k. you may have just called me on an unintentional bluff. My knowledge
of plpython is dated. I just tested some of the things (like in/out) and
they appear to work at least on 8.4).

My argument would be now, what is the benefit of the James Pye version
over our version. James can you illustrate succinctly why we should be
supporting a new version?

If there is, I am still all for it, but I am a python bigot.

Sincerely,

Joshua D. Drake
