That may work-- I haven't taken a look at the code but it is probably a good starting point. We could create a new repo on the pydata GitHub org (http://github.com/pydata) and use that as our point of collaboration. I will hopefully be able to put some serious energy into this this spring. - Wes _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
