Duh... Guess I fell right at the time of the change. Robert, thx a lot! Pauli, do you think you could put your numpyext in the doc/ directory as well ? Cheers, P.

While we are speaking about the moved docs: is it decided how we will distribute it ? For now, it is not included in the generated tarball, but I was wondering how we should distribute it (before, it went into .../site-packages/numpy/doc).

I recommend a numpy-doc-1.x.zip file on the download site.

Distutils does not have the notion of an installed doc outside the package itself, right ?

Nope. -- Robert Kern "I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth." -- Umberto Eco

I have been under the impression that the documentation on the doc wiki http://docs.scipy.org/numpy/Front%20Page/ immediately (or at least very quickly) reflected changes in SVN and that changes to the docs in the wiki need to be manually checked in to SVN. Admittedly I have no good reason to make this assumption.

Looking at some recent changes made to docstrings in SVN by Pierre (r6110 & r6111), these are not yet reflected in the doc wiki. I guess my question is aimed at Pauli - How frequently does the doc wiki's version of SVN get updated and is this automatic or does it require manual intervention?

It's manual, somebody with admin privileges must go and click a button to update it. But there's no reason why it couldn't be automatic. It should be trivial to rig up a cron job that runs whenever there are new revisions in SVN, so let's put this in the todo list. -- Pauli Virtanen

I think this is a sensible goal, people editing in the wiki may not be aware of what's happening in SVN. Nice to see that the Scipy docs are now available as well! Cheers, Scott
