I am pleased to announce the availability of the second beta of NumPy 1.6.0. Due to the extensive changes in the Numpy core for this release, the beta testing phase will last at least one month. Please test this beta and report any problems on the Numpy mailing list.
the tests have a number of Python2.4-incompatibilities, one for a file opening mode and the rest for class declaration styles.
