Hi all,

Having looked at the README.txt and INSTALL.txt files on the
branch, I see no mention of which Python 3.x versions are supported:

https://github.com/numpy/numpy/blob/maintenance/1.7.x/README.txt
https://github.com/numpy/numpy/blob/maintenance/1.7.x/INSTALL.txt

Is NumPy 1.7 intended to support Python 3.3?

My impression from this thread is probably yes:
http://mail.scipy.org/pipermail/numpy-discussion/2012-July/063483.html
...
http://mail.scipy.org/pipermail/numpy-discussion/2012-August/063597.html

If so, then under Windows (32 bit at least) where the Python.org
provided Python 3.3 is compiled with MSCV 2010 there are some
problems - see: https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/2726
Should an issue be filed for this?

Thanks,

Peter
