If anyone wants package-index access to this name to upload Windows or manylinux wheels just let me know; however, as this is just a proof of concept, I do not intend to maintain it long-term.

For Windows, http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/ has 32 and 64 bit builds of cdecimal 2.3 for 2.7, 3.4, and 3.5.

(Is cdecimal substantially different from the _decimal added in 3.5?)
