There's been some discussion earlier about how starting to write bigger 
parts of the NumPy/SciPy codebase in Cython could potentially lower the 
barrier of entry.

Some topics:
  * Move towards PEP3118 as the primary scientific "data container" 
rather than ndarray?
  * Cython templates?
  * Native SIMD in Cython -- good or bad? (I don't know myself, to be 
honest.)
  * Future direction in general

I'll add a Cython BOF to the wiki if somebody express interest.
