Shed Skin 0.9.2

I have just released version 0.9.2 of Shed Skin, a restricted-Python (2.4-2.6) to C++ compiler. This is the second maintenance release since 0.9, so no new major features were added.

The biggest improvement is probably some optimizations for the array module. Other than this, the changes are mostly unrelated minor optimizations and bug fixes. Please see the release notes for more detail.

Three nice new examples were also added for this release, bringing the number of examples to 67, with a total linecount of about 17,000 lines (sloccount): a "stereo vision" program, and two Rubik's cube solvers.

Shed Skin 0.9.1

I have just released version 0.9.1 of Shed Skin, a restricted-Python (2.4-2.6) to C++ compiler. This is a maintenance release, so no new major features were added. Most interesting perhaps are optimizations for itertools.product and str.join. Other than that, it's mostly bugfixes and a new (hq2x image scaling) example. Please see the release notes for more details.

In the meantime, Paul Boddie has succeeded in getting Shed Skin 0.9 accepted into the Debian repositories, which is awesome for me personally.
