Any news on the Py3k front?
It's there in general, so you can compile lxml under Py3 and run your code against it for pure testing purposes. However, due to changes in Py3.0 beta2, you can get crashes in the exception handling code that Cython generates. There seem to be slight changes in the way exceptions interact with the frame cleanup in Py3 now. And Cython does not use frames at all but emulates them, apparently not well enough for the latest Py3 beta... I'm working on fixing this, but I don't know when this will be done. It may take a couple of weeks, and will require a new source release of 2.1.x. Stefan
