* `Py3k`_ (supporting Python 3.x): the release PyPy3 2.2 is imminent.
* `STM`_ (software transactional memory): a preview will be released very soon,
once we fix a few bugs
-* `NumPy`_ the work done is included in the PyPy 2.2 release. More details
below.

-* enhancements to the PyPy JIT were made to support virtualizing the
raw_store/raw_load memory operations used in numpy arrays. Further work remains
here in virtualizing the alloc_raw_storage when possible. This will allow
scalars to have storages but still be virtualized when possible in loops.
