Unladen Swallow 2009Q2 released

The Unladen Swallow 2009Q2 release is out. Unladen Swallow is an accelerated Python implementation; LWN covered it in May. It now uses LLVM to compile Python functions to machine code, and appears to be coming along nicely, even if the developers do not yet recommend its use in production situations. "Unladen Swallow 2009Q2 passes the tests for all the third-party tools and libraries listed on the Testing page. Significantly for many projects, this includes compatibility with Twisted, Django, NumPy and Swig."
