the Kernel class is described in the on-line reference:

    http://effbot.org/imagingbook/imagefilter.htm

it simply expects a flattened list of 9 or 25 items, so you should be
able to use kernel.flat or kernel.flatten() or kernel.flatten(1) or what-
ever it's called in the current numpy version...

this URL lets you search the mailing list archives:

    http://www.python.org/search/

I prefer the gmane search engine, but that one seems to be down right
now...

(the image-sig list is called gmane.comp.python.image over there)
