Marc -
I am not experienced with Gambit internals, but I am interested in using green threads in JavaScript and Python using the universal backend.  Let me know what I can do to help.
Thanks,Bob

 Feature-full green threads (as in Gambit-C) are not currently supported by the universal backend, but they are on the TODO and definitely doable.

To get this moving faster, I’d need some help from people interested in specific targets of the universal backend.  So if you are interested in JavaScript, PHP, Python, Ruby, Java please let me know.
