In Stackless Python in Eve, there is some talk about "BLUE" objects in Python. Does anyone know details about this technology?

A:
It's a codename for a framework CCP probably developed internally for EVE Online. EVE Online installations come with blue.dll. There is a python API to it (import blue).
Digging into blue.dll reveals:

Interesting. BeOS::Python? It's sad that BeOS didn't take off. Anyway, thanks for the answer. I guess it's all I can get.
