On another note, it looks like the blitz++ library might be a good basis for a general Numerical library (and NumPy 3) as well. It does come with a flexible license. Any thoughts?
From a more pragmatic point of view, I wonder what the implications for efficiency would be. C++ used to be very different in their optimization abilities, is that still the case? Even more
I think the major question is whether we are willing to move to C++. And if we want to keep up any pretentions for Numeric becoming part of the Python core, this translates into whether Guido will accept C++ code in the Python core. pragmatically, is blitz++ reasonably efficient with g++?
