[Numpy-discussion] NEP sprint: 21 and 22 March

[Stefan van der Walt]

Hi everyone,

As you may have noticed, there's been quite a bit of movement recently
around NumPy Enhancement Proposals---on setting specifications,
building infrastructure, as well as writing new proposals.

To further support this work, we will be hosting an informal NEP
sprint at Berkeley on 21 and 22 March.  Our aim is to bring core
contributors and interested community members together to discuss
proposal ideas, write up new NEPs, and polish existing ones.

Some potential topics of discussion are:

 - Duck arrays
 - Array concatenation
 - Random number generator seed versioning
 - User defined dtypes
 - Deprecation pathways for `np.matrix`
 - What to do about nditer?

All community members are welcome to attend.  If you are a core
contributor, we may be able to fund some travel costs as well; please
let me know.

Best regards
Stéfan
