Hi, This is good news! By integrating, do you mean that you propose to write python wrappers on top of the whole C library? Because I can see that there are things like MCMC or copulas which we might not want here (we had discussions about it and let this for statsmodels). Thanks in advance for the precision. Cheers, Pamphile

Hi all,

the developers of the library UNU.RAN (http://statmath.wu.ac.at/software/unuran/ <http://statmath.wu.ac.at/software/unuran/>) have given their permission to integrate it into SciPy under a BSD licence.It would be a great addition to scipy.stats since UNU.RAN contains a lot of powerful tools for generating random variates. I already discussed the idea with some of the developers of scipy.stats and we agreed to propose this as a project idea for GSoC, see https://github.com/scipy/scipy/wiki/GSoC-2021-project-ideas <https://github.com/scipy/scipy/wiki/GSoC-2021-project-ideas>

Please let me know if you have any questions / comments.

Thanks
