PyPy 7.3.17 released, with support for Python versions 2.7 and 3.10 🎉
Highlights:
- we improved the repl, and ported the changes of pyrepl that CPython has been working on back to PyPy. now our tracebacks have colors, pasting larger snippets of code works without indentation bugs, etc.
- first release with knownbits-optimizations in the JIT
- the JIT gained a RISC-V64 backend (we don't release binaries for RISC-V yet though, you need to build them yourself).

Thanks to Matti Picus the release manager, to Nico Rittinghaus for his work knownbits JIT optimization, Logan Chien for his work on the RISC-V JIT backend, and the CPython devs for the new pyrepl features (CPython 3.13 will release with pyrepl as well in a few weeks! multiline-editing in the repl, finally!)
We have also finally added CPy 3.11 and 3.12 to the start page of https://speed.pypy.org/
