Hi, An optional (not experimental) package called "pyx" is available for Sage [1].
DO NOT INSTALL IT! I just did on Ubuntu 15.10, and it completely hosed my python install, so that I couldn't start sage/ipython/etc. It turned out that "import path" (path.py is part of python) failed due to a weird non-utf8 character that is in the pyx package docstring, which breaks things badly (probably due to a bug in python, but whatever). I think we should just delete pyx -- if people want it, let them install it themselves in the standard python way. Reasons: (1) it seriously breaks my Sage install, and maybe other people's. (2) The current version on the pyx website is 0.14 (and they had releases this year), but we're distributing version 0.10 from *2007*!
