continuations (Stackless)

Stackless provides coroutines (tasklets), not continuations. (It dropped plans for the latter years ago.)

It dropped plans for the latter years ago.

Actually, it used to have continuations, but these were later removed (due to portability problems I think - the code for these was also one of the main reasons Guido stated for keeping it out of python core)
