Hi all,
Cython 0.19.1 is following the course of the recent 0.19 release. This is
mainly a bug fix release that adds only minor new features and fixes some
bugs and regressions in the latest release. Upgrading is generally recommended.
You can get it from here:

Release notes:
https://github.com/cython/cython/blob/8f07f8d8265799cada5046fe0b7c0807d7b41fb3/CHANGES.rst
Documentation: http://docs.cython.org/
Major changes include:
* A warning is emitted when negative literal indices are found inside of
a code section that disables ``wraparound`` handling. This helps with
fixing invalid code that might fail in the face of future compiler
optimisations.
* A regression in 0.19 was fixed that rejected valid C expressions from
being used in C array size declarations.
* Testing large (> int) C integer values for their truth value could fail
due to integer wrap-around.
* The automatic signature documentation tries to preserve more semantics
of default arguments and argument types. Specifically, ``bint``
arguments now appear as type ``bool``.
Have fun,
Stefan
