Pyrex 0.3.2 is now available:

http://www.cosc.canterbury.ac.nz/~greg/python/Pyrex/

Lots of little bug fixes and improvements,
including:

- Fixed the & operator that got broken in 0.3.1
- Stopped the weird "SystemError: 'finally' pops bad exception"
- Various crashes
- 2-element slice indexing expressions work now
- Most arithmetic operations now allowed in constant
  expressions (so you can have negative enum values now!)

What is Pyrex?
--------------

Pyrex is a new language for writing Python extension modules.
It lets you freely mix operations on Python and C data, with
all Python reference counting and error checking handled
automatically.
