Oh yeah, you may be wondering how this differs from decimalfuncs:
http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi/decimalfuncs/1.4
The answer is that dmath has the complete set of math routines (not just a
subset), it's faster (from what I can tell), doesn't require its own
precision-setting method, and it's MIT instead of GPL licensed.
