+  There are `nightly binary builds`_ available. Those builds are not always
+  as stable as the release, but they contain Python 2.7 compatibility,
+  numerous bugfixes and performance improvements.
+
 Here are the various binaries of **PyPy 1.4.1** that we provide for x86 Linux,
 Mac OS/X or Windows. This is mostly a bugfix release, although the performance
 over the previous release 1.4 has improved in some cases.
