    thread and portability Unix/Linux

    Hi,
    I have a Python application that runs under HPUX 11.11 (then unix). It
    uses threads :
    from threading import Thread
    # Class Main
    class RunComponent(Th read):

    My application should run under Linux (red hat 3 ou 4) and I read that
    differences exist between the implementation of threads : on HPUX
    11.11 there is CMA (ou DCE) threads and on Linux POSIX thread. Do you
    think that my Python application should be modified or may be such
    differences are hidden by the python interpreter ?
    In other terms, do I get some risks on this particular aspect by
    porting my application ?
    Thanks a lot

    PS: If you are aware of other risk of porting, I am interested too.

      The Python threading model abstracts from the underlying OS threading, so
      there should be no need to change anything (AFAIK).
