i hope so (although i find the whole thing a bit odd - why is it being merged now, if the work was mainly in fixing llvm; why not spend another year and hit the numbers? pypy has been steadily improving, and while people have said there's room for both, this smells a bit political...)
"This PEP proposes to integrate Unladen Swallow into CPython's development tree in a separate py3k-jit branch, targeted for eventual merger with the main py3k branch. While Unladen Swallow is by no means finished or perfect, we feel that Unladen Swallow has reached sufficient maturity to warrant incorporation into CPython's roadmap. We have sought to create a stable platform that the wider CPython development team can build upon, a platform that will yield increasing performance for years to come."
