Hello, I have a project where I could use the bounded parameter functionality in ODRPACK95. Is anyone working on implementing it? I started to look at it and have a rough idea of what to do, using f2py. Why does the current ODRPACK implementation use C? Is there something important where C is needed? Also, why isn't odr under scipy.optimization? ODRPACK95 can be called in such a way to calculate a least squares implementation. Would that be useful to someone to have bounded parameter least squares optimization? Kindest regards, Tim

I keep meaning to revisit it, but its official repository seems to have gone offline. What sources are you looking at?

f2py didn't exist, or just wasn't on my radar, when I first wrote it.

When I asked where it should go, I got three different answers, so I just made a fourth. :-) -- Robert Kern

I keep meaning to revisit it, but its official repository seems to
have gone offline. What sources are you looking at? No official site but at http://www.netlib.org/odrpack/ - there is a link at the top to TOMS869 http://www.netlib.org/toms/869.zip The zip file has documentation and code. Kindest regards, Tim
