I'm happy to announce the release of Cython 0.12.1.
== About ==
Cython is a language that makes writing C extensions for the Python
language as easy as Python itself. Cython is based on the well-known
Pyrex, but supports more cutting edge functionality and
optimizations.Cython is an ideal language for wrapping external C
libraries, and for fast C modules that speed up the execution of
Python code. For more information, see http://cython.org.
== Where to get it ==
http://cython.orghttp://pypi.python.org/pypi/Cython
== New Features ==
* Type inference improvements.
There have been several bug fixes and improvements to the type
inferencer.
Notably, there is now a "safe" mode enabled by setting the infer_types
directive to None. (The None here refers to the "default" mode, which
will be the default in 0.13.) This safe mode limits inference to
Python object types and C doubles, which should speed up execution
without affecting any semantics such as integer overflow behavior like
infer_types=True might. There is also an infer_types.verbose option
which allows one to see what types are inferred.
* The boundscheck directive works for lists and tuples as well as
buffers.
* len(s) and s.decode("encoding") are efficiently supported for char*
s.
* Cython's INLINE macro has been renamed to CYTHON_INLINE to reduce
conflict and has better support for the MSVC compiler on Windows. It
is no longer clobbered if externally defined.
* Revision history is now omitted from the source package, resulting
in a 85% size reduction. Running make repo will download the history
and turn the directory into a complete Mercurial working repository.
* Cython modules don't need to be recompiled when the size of an
external type grows. (A warning, rather than an error, is produced.)
This should be helpful for binary distributions relying on NumPy.
Several other bugs and minor improvements have been made. This release
should be fully backwards compatible with 0.12. For a list of tickets
closed, see http://trac.cython.org/cython_trac/query?group=component&milestone=0.12.1
== Contributors to this release ==
* Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis
* Stefan Behnel
* Robert Bradshaw
* Lisandro Dalcin
* Julien Danjou
* Mark Lodato
* Dag Sverre Seljebotn
Thanks also to the many who've submitted feedback and contributed to
discussions on the mailing list.
Everyone,
I'm pleased to annouce the final release of GMPY 1.11.
GMPY is a wrapper for the MPIR or GMP multiple-precision
arithmetic library. GMPY 1.11 is available for download from:
http://code.google.com/p/gmpy/
In addition to support for Python 3.x, there are several new
features in this release:
- Even faster conversion to/from Python longs.
- Performance improvements by reducing function overhead.
- Performance improvements by improved caching.
- Support for cdivmod, fdivmod, and tdivmod.
- Unicode strings are accepted on Python 2.x and 3.x.
- Fixed regression in GMPY 1.10 where True/False were no
longer recognized.
Changes since 1.11rc1:
- Recognizes GMP 5.
- Bugs fixed in Windows binaries (MPIR 1.3.0rc3 -> 1.3.1).
Comments on provided binaries
The 32-bit Windows installers were compiled with MinGW32 using MPIR
1.3.1 and will automatically recognize the CPU type and use code
optimized for the CPU at runtime. The 64-bit Windows installers were
compiled Microsoft's SDK compilers using MPRI 1.3.1. Detailed
instructions are included if you want to compile your own binary.
Please report any issues!

Hi,
I'm pleased to announce the release of circuits-1.2.1
This is a minor bug fix release.
== About ==
circuits is a Lightweight Event driven Framework for the Python
Programming Language, with a strong Component Architecture. circuits
also includes a lightweight, high performance and scalable HTTP/WSGI
web server (with some similar features to CherryPy) as well as various
I/O and Networking components.
circuits has a clean architecture and has no required external
dependencies. It has a small footprint and delivers a powerful set of
features for building large, scalable, maintainable applications and
systems. circuits comes with a suite of standard components that can
be quickly utilzed to create applications from a simple tool to a complex
distributed web application.

features.
This release includes the following minor features and improvements:
* Corrected support for non-ascii I/O when debugging under Python 3.x
* Support debugging of wide unicode builds of Python 3.x
* Improve GUI responsiveness in very large projects (optimized external
file change checking)
* Auto-enter last failed or canceled version control commit message
* Added context menu for copy/paste to commit message area in version
control tools
* Version control annotate commands like 'svn blame' show results in
scratch buffer
* Many other minor features and bug fixes; See the change log
at http://wingware.com/pub/wingide/3.2.4/CHANGELOG.txt for details
