Yes, it seems like it, even though there are no news of it on SourceForge. But I downloaded the zip file and the README says: The gmpy project is moving to Google Code: http://code.google.com/p/gmpy/ Please check that site for better-updated sources, docs, etc. If you check the names of the authors, then you'll see that the same guy shows up in both places, so I think we can trust it. > Also, the google page has gmpy 1.02, but I'm not sure if that's only > a pre-release version -- prerelease and real-world crypto sound like > a bad combination, though for toying around things should be fine. > The sourceforge site has gmpy 1.01, though only compiled for python > 2.3 and 2.4.

This is because of the heavy use of the @decorator syntax, which was only introduced in Py 2.4. You can do foo = decorator(foo) in earlier versions, but I don't think it is worth it to support those Python versions. As for GMPY, then I think I have only tried version 1.01. -- Martin Geisler _______________________________________________ viff-devel mailing list (http://viff.dk/) [email protected] http://lists.viff.dk/listinfo.cgi/viff-devel-viff.dk
