Hi,
The new interface looks pretty clear. I don't think numarray.numcomp veneer would be very elegant, because after all, it took to me only 30 minuts to migrate pytables from numarray 0.5 to the forthcoming numarray 0.6 (and it used the old recarray, charray and ndarray modules intensively), although I recognize that it may be useful in some circunstances, of course.
numcomp is a free-standing collection of compatibility modules. It is throw-away code to help mitigate the need to simultaneously change several pieces of software. It's not required or recommended, but is there as a tool to ease the transition from the old names to the new if the transition presents any sticky problems. Thanks looking it over, Todd
