Great work, thanks!
I see this:
“- Fixed width encoded strings (utf8, latin1, ...)”
And a bit of discussion in the PR.
But I think there are key questions to be addressed in handling strings in numpy. I know we’ve had a lot of discussion about it on this list over the years — but is there a place that has captured that discussion / and or we can start a new one?
For example, I am very wary of putting a non-fixed width encoding (e.g. Utf-8) in a fixed width field.
But this PR is not the place to discuss that.

Hi everyone,
Please take a look at the latest roadmap proposal:
https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/11611
This is a living document, so can easily be modified in the future, but we'd like to get in place a document that corresponds fairly closely with current community priorities.
