Hi all,
A lot of work has been happening to implement NEP 52 (
https://numpy.org/neps/nep-0052-python-api-cleanup.html) over the past 1.5 months - mostly work by Mateusz Sokol, and review effort of Sebastian, Nathan and myself. The majority of API changes have been made. There's more to do of course and there are pending PRs for a good fraction of that. These two tracking issues cover a lot of ground and discussion around decision on individual APIs:
In
https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/24620 the NEP itself is being updated for changes that have been made. And it will mark the NEP as Accepted, which seems about time given that a lot of the work has already been merged.
If there are no substantive objections within 7 days from this email, then the NEP will be accepted; see NEP 0 for more details.
Cheers,
Ralf
