This is, effectively, the plan for the next few Python releases. The plan is for a no-GIL and a GIL execution mode with GIL being the default. At some point, IIRC, the plan is to swap the default and then to eliminate the GIL option.

It'd make sense if pypi wasn't full of abandoned libraries that nobody can reclaim to update.
