Medusa: A much faster Python implementation based on the Dart Virtual Machine (pycon.org)

This is really cool! What I'm wondering is how well the "compiling Python code to a highly optimized Dart code" step works. For instance, does the standard Python test suite mostly pass? I imagine this is a monumentous task, and so a bit more detail on the status of the effort would be helpful!
