Hi,

sorry, was away for a while.

Same from my side. There are a couple of regressions (failing tests) in the
current -unstable that I couldn't easily fix right away. They need some
more work before merging it back into -devel. BTW, I'd actually go the
opposite way once that's done: merge -devel up into -unstable, drop -devel
and rename -unstable.

Regarding the -closures branch, IMHO it now works well enough to merge it
into cython-unstable. I'd still be happy if others could give it a try
first, maybe just run it on some Python code that uses nested functions.
