Now, let's start getting this stable....
Great work, and we are much relieved that NumPy has a firm future (albeit under a different name). However, can I ask if there are plans to add Masked Arrays to SciPy Core? If not, we'll have to stick with NumPy - missing values are ubiquitous in the biological sciences and any package which can't handle them isn't, to put it bluntly, of much use. We are happy to help test MA for SciPy Core, and our project (www.netepi.org) has over a thousand unit tests which give the basics of NumPy and MA a good work-out - so if/when we convert to SciPy Core the unit tests will be helpful. However we are not familiar enough with how SciPy Core differs from NumPy to help with the porting, I'm afraid. Tim C
