Re: contributing C/Cython code to the scikit
Hi St�fan and Chris, thanks for the constructive answer! I'll keep you informed on the mailing-list. Cheers, Emmanuelle On Thu, Sep 09, 2010 at 03:52:05PM -0700, Stefan van der Walt wrote:

As they are also using Python, they may be interested in contributing some parts of their existing code to the scikit. I would like to know if it is compatible with the development policy of the scikit to include C code wrapped with cython in order to use numpy arrays (provided there is a significant speed benefit, and that good documentation and tests are provided, of course), or if pure Python/Cython is required.
Since we already require a C compiler (by allowing Cython code), I see no problem with this approach. All contributions are much appreciated! My time to work on this project has been limited recently, and I would love to get more hands on board.

Hello everyone, here is a first code draft, including two basic filters http://github.com/maelp/scikits.image the goal is not to include high-profile algorithms right now, but to get the base framework correctly (and then we'll have some engineer translate our codebase to python). could you tell me if the way I started it seems okay with you? (eg I've been hacking in some files to have everything compile.. am I doing it as it should be done?) feel free to comment on code and possible issues , as we're trying to have some solid base to build upon :)
