URL : https://www.python.org/
License : Python-2.0.1
Description : The provisional Free Threading (PEP 703) build of Python.
:
: CPython’s global interpreter lock (“GIL”) prevents multiple threads from
: executing Python code at the same time. The GIL is an obstacle to using

: It lets the interpreter run Python code without the global interpreter lock
: and with the necessary changes needed to make the interpreter thread-safe.
