Hi, Is there any wish-list of projects and feature requests for Numpy ? I would appreciate it, if Numpy could handle the following functions : 1. Fix eig to also be able to solve the generalized eigenvalue problem and polynomial eigenvalue problems 2. Support for matrix functions like logm, expm, sqrtm 3. Wavelet transform 4. Solver for ODE's and DAE's Nils Wagner

I would appreciate it, if Numpy could handle the following functions :
1. Fix eig to also be able to solve the generalized eigenvalue problem and polynomial eigenvalue problems
That would be a relatively simple addition to LinearAlgebra, but would also require some additional routines from LAPACK.
2. Support for matrix functions like logm, expm, sqrtm
That can be done in Python code.
3. Wavelet transform
For efficiency, that should be done in C/Fortran. Are there any wavelet libraries out there? Anyway, this should become a separate package.
4. Solver for ODE's and DAE's
Given the variety of equations and solvers, this looks like a big project. Good Python integration is also not trivial. So that's not only a separate package, but even a major one.

Is there any intention for inclusion of the missing functions in future releases of Numpy ? Nils.

Usually code submissions are gratefully accepted. But I am not aware of anyone working on any of these topics at the moment.
