+==========
+PyPy 2.6.1
+==========
+
+We're pleased to announce PyPy 2.6.1, an update to PyPy 2.6.0 released June 1.
+We have updated stdlib to 2.7.10, `cffi`_ to version 1.3, extended support for
+the new vmprof_ statistical profiler for multiple threads, and increased
+functionality of numpy.
+
+You can download the PyPy 2.6.1 release here:
+
+ http://pypy.org/download.html
+
+We would like to thank our donors for the continued support of the PyPy
+project, and our volunteers and contributors.
+
+.. _`cffi`: https://cffi.readthedocs.org
+
+We would also like to encourage new people to join the project. PyPy has many
+layers and we need help with all of them: `PyPy`_ and `RPython`_ documentation
+improvements, tweaking popular `modules`_ to run on pypy, or general `help`_
with making
+RPython's JIT even better.
+
+.. _`PyPy`: http://doc.pypy.org
+.. _`RPython`: https://rpython.readthedocs.org
+.. _`modules`:

+.. _`help`: http://doc.pypy.org/en/latest/project-ideas.html
+
+What is PyPy?
+=============
+
+PyPy is a very compliant Python interpreter, almost a drop-in replacement for
+CPython 2.7. It's fast (`pypy and cpython 2.7.x`_ performance comparison)
+due to its integrated tracing JIT compiler.
+
+This release supports **x86** machines on most common operating systems
+(Linux 32/64, Mac OS X 64, Windows 32, OpenBSD_, freebsd_),
+as well as newer **ARM** hardware (ARMv6 or ARMv7, with VFPv3) running Linux.
+
+We also welcome developers of other
+`dynamic languages`_ to see what RPython can do for them.
+
+.. _`pypy and cpython 2.7.x`: http://speed.pypy.org
+.. _OpenBSD: http://cvsweb.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/ports/lang/pypy
+.. _freebsd: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/head/lang/pypy/
+.. _`dynamic languages`: http://pypyjs.org
+
+Highlights
+===========
+
+* Bug Fixes
+
+ * Revive non-SSE2 support
+
+ * Fixes for detaching _io.Buffer*
+
+ * On Windows, close (and flush) all open sockets on exiting
+
+ * Drop support for ancient macOS v10.4 and before
+
+ * Clear up contention in the garbage collector between trace-me-later and
pinning
+
+ * Issues reported with our previous release were resolved_ after reports
from users on
+ our issue tracker at https://bitbucket.org/pypy/pypy/issues or on IRC at
+ #pypy.
+
+* New features:
+
+ * cffi was updated to version 1.3
+
+ * The python stdlib was updated to 2.7.10 from 2.7.9
+
+ * vmprof now supports multiple threads and OS X
+
+ * The translation process builds cffi import libraries for some stdlib
+ packages, which should prevent confusion when package.py is not used
+
+ * better support for gdb debugging
+
+ * freebsd should be able to translate PyPy "out of the box" with no patches
+
+* Numpy:
+
+ * Better support for record dtypes, including the ``align`` keyword
+
+ * Implement casting and create output arrays accordingly (still missing some
corner cases)
+
+ * Support creation of unicode ndarrays
+
+ * Better support ndarray.flags
+
+ * Support ``axis`` argument in more functions
+
+ * Refactor array indexing to support ellipses
+
+ * Allow the docstrings of built-in numpy objects to be set at run-time
+
+ * Support the ``buffered`` nditer creation keyword
+
+* Performance improvements:
+
+ * Delay recursive calls to make them non-recursive
+
+ * Skip loop unrolling if it compiles too much code
+
+ * Tweak the heapcache
+
+ * Add a list strategy for lists that store both floats and 32-bit integers.
+ The latter are encoded as nonstandard NaNs. Benchmarks show that the speed
+ of such lists is now very close to the speed of purely-int or purely-float
+ lists.
+
+ * Simplify implementation of ffi.gc() to avoid most weakrefs
+
+ * Massively improve the performance of map() with more than
+ one sequence argument
+
+.. _`vmprof`: https://vmprof.readthedocs.org
+.. _resolved: http://doc.pypy.org/en/latest/whatsnew-2.6.1.html
+
+Please try it out and let us know what you think. We welcome
+success stories, `experiments`_, or `benchmarks`_, we know you are using
PyPy, please tell us about it!
+
+Cheers
