Hi everyone, i am pleased to announce a new major release of the uWSGI
project.
The 0.9.9 version focuses on optimizations in various area, an improved
spooler and native gevent support.
A new python-specific feature is the ‘pyshell’: adding --pyshell to your
options will run a python shell
in the uwsgi environment (useful for testing the uwsgi api).
The rack plugin has been improved and the old-sharedarea has been
revamped to support 64bit.
Pump (an alternative to WSGI) support has been added, it is only a bunch
of lines, so do not flame about it 
A new Emperor mode, called Tyrant, is available for highly-untrusted
environments.
This is the first release linkable as a shared library (will be the base
for pypy support). Look
at skel.c in source distribution for an example.
