I'm pleased to announce that GMPY2 2.0.0b1 is available.

GMPY2 is a Python extension that supports fast multiple-precision
integer, rational, real, and complex arithmetic. GMPY2 provides an
interface to the GMP (or MPIR), MPFR, and MPC multiple-precision
libraries. There are significant new enhancements to this version:

1. Reworked context manager.
2. Support for complex arithmetic.
3. Support for PEP 3101 formatting.
4. Support for additional number theory and primality testing
routines.

GMPY2 is available at:
