We use Numeric in NetEpi Analysis (www.netepi.org).

No.

Unknown - someone will have to fund the work.

NetEpi Analysis implements C extensions to do fast set options on integer
Numeric arrays, as well as to support mmap'ed Numeric arrays. I haven't
looked at what is required to port these to Numpy (or replace with native
Numpy features).

NetEpi Analysis also uses rpy, which will potentially need to be updated
to support Numpy.

We're also concerned about speed - but I haven't done any testing
against the latest Numpy.
