Is either NumPy or SciPy substantially supported by an identifiable and actual non-profit organization? I ask because I think both fit under http://www.mellon.org/grant_programs/programs/copy_of_research item 4. Here is the announcement: http://matc.mellon.org/ Note that universities are among the nominees: http://matc.mellon.org/2007_nominations Cheers, Alan Isaac

I was just about to respond that _substantial_ support by a non- profit best describes Travis Oliphant's many contributions through BYU. I see now that BYU/SciPy/NumPy has been nominated ... excellent! It might be appropriate for people from various constituencies to comment... "Preference will be given to projects that benefit more and larger constituencies, demonstrate exceptional promise or performance, and meet particularly urgent needs." http://matc.mellon.org/2007_nominations/brigham-young-university/ scipy-numpy Best, Travis (Vaught) On Mar 30, 2007, at 2:29 PM, Alan G Isaac wrote:
