Erm, yes, right. If you want to exclude Cython, which arguably is the only 
static Python compiler that actually has a large user base, then those may 
really be the only two that are widely used. Except that Psyco is certainly 
being used a lot more often than Shedskin, mainly because it actually 
allows you to execute Python code.
