[Twisted-Python] new pb, cPB and general PBness?

[Gabe Rudy]

So I'm happily using pb and am generally content with the performace, but 
noticed the documentation mentioning that a C version of the jelly functions 
might be forthcoming kind of like the cPickle library. 

What is the status of "c" pb? I also saw talk of a "new" pb implementation 
(pb2?) and am wondering if the C version is being put on hold until the new 
pb protocol stabilizes. The new pb talk has got me curious as well. What's 
"new" or different about it?

I'd be willing to help/collaborate/code with the C pb project if there in fact 
is one. Well, once I have more time... a little crazy at the moment. :)

Thanks,
