I would like to inform the Python community that I have discontinued the development effort of PyWeakReference C++ extension module, as Python now supports weak references out of the box.
I would like to thank every one who supported the effort of introducing weak references into Python!
For those of you who made use of my extension module and do not feel like switching to Python's weakref module, I would like to say that it is not a good idea! Although, I will be more then glad to answer your questions or even fix a bug or two, I DO NOT INTEND to continue working on my ext. module.

I have successfully finished the process of converting the source code to "C". Weak Reference extension is completely CPython compatible now.
I am almost done converting this module to "C".
The "C" release is expected this week.
Stay tuned... ;)
The first pre-alpha release is now available.
See the documentation and samples in the Doc subdirectory of the zip file.
The zip file contains source code only.
The code was tested on Windows and Linux 6.2 platforms.
Coming soon…
This project presents a Weak Reference C++ extension for CPython 2.0.
More information will be posted soon.
