[Numpy-discussion] CEP 1001 - Custom PyTypeObject extensions

[Dag Sverre Seljebotn]

This comes from a refactor of the work on CEP 1000: It's a pre-PEP with 
a hack we can use *today*, that allows 3rd party libraries to agree on 
extensions to the PyTypeObject structure.

As hinted in my other recent thread, I believe this will also be good 
medicine as NumPy moves forward, so that we stop worrying about 
"ndarray" vs. C extensions, and rather talk about which PyTypeObject 
extensions are supported.

Technical discussion about this on the Cython list please.
