So to clarify, I am expecting to have people from my team making most of
the contributions. In this case, since people are not so familiar w/ the
internal of NumPy, I was thinking more about bugs / docs / etc. than the
hard stuff like dtype.

I will try to join the meeting next week though (where are the info to join
?),
