[Numpy-discussion] 1.8.1rc1 on sourceforge.

[Matthew Brett]

Hi,

Thanks to Chuck and Jarrod for giving me upload permission - wheels
are on sourceforge now:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/numpy/files/NumPy/1.8.1rc1

Until the wheels reach pypi, you'll have to test by:

* downloading the python 2.7 or 3.3 wheel to a directory (say the
current directory) and:
* upgrading pip to latest (1.5.4):
http://pip.readthedocs.org/en/latest/installing.html
* pip install --pre --find-links . numpy

The wheels match the python.org python.  You can make them install on
system python at your own risk (likely small) with `pip install
numpy-1.8.1rc1-cp27-none-macosx_10_6_intel.whl` (hoping you do in fact
have python 2.7 as your system python).

Feedback very welcome, especially from anyone running homebrew python
trying the direct pip install above.

Cheers,

Matthew
