[Python-Dev] Fwd: Python 3.3 can't sort memoryviews as they're unorderable

[Nick Coghlan]

(Oops, originally replied only to Mark)

Is a 3x3 array greater or less than a 2x4 array or another 3x3 array?

The contents of a 1D memory view may be sortable, but the "logical
structure" part isn't, and neither is any multi-dimensional view.

I'm surprised by the lack of inheritance support though - is that a
regression from 3.2? If yes, that's definitely a bug to be fixed in a 3.3
maintenance release, otherwise it's probably a feature request for 3.4.

Cheers,
Nick.
