Sure, id like to do the hashing things out, but I would
also like some preliminary feedback as to whether this is
going in a direction anyone else sees the point of, if it
conflicts with other plans, and indeed if we can agree
that numpy is the right place for it; a point which I
would very much like to defend. If there is some obvious
no-go that im missing, I can do without the drudgery of
writing proper documentation ;).
These are good issues, that need to be discussed and resolved. Python
has the benefit of having a BDFL. Numpy has no similar arrangement.
In the post-numarray period, Travis Oliphant took that role and advanced
the package in many ways.
It seems that Travis is no longer available. There is a need for
someone, or maybe some group of three, who would be guided by the sort
of thinking Charles Harris sets out above, who would make the final
decision.
