I'm all for a big scary warning on import. Fair warning is good for everyone, not just our developers. As for testing, our software that uses the API is tested nightly. So if our software stops working, and the compatibility layer is the cause, we would definitely be looking into what happened.

Hi, Just to note, as they plan to remove there dependency on it this year, is it bad that they can't use 1.8 for a few mounts until they finish the conversion? They already have a working version. They can continue to use it for as long they want. The only advantage for them if the compat layers a

After poking around our code base and talking to a few folks I predict that we at STScI can remove our dependence on the numpy-numarray compatibility layer by the end of this calendar year. I'm unsure of what the timeline for numpy 1.8 is so I don't know if this schedule supports removal of the co

I realize we may be a minority but it would be very nice if support for numeric could be kept for a few more versions. We don't have any particular needs for numarray. We just under went through an extremely long and painful process to upgrade our software
