I'm in contact with researchers in image processing and computer vision who have developed a C library for image processing. 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.
