[Python-ideas] Is it Python 3 yet?

[Stephan Houben]

Hi all,

FWIW, I got the following statement from here:

https://github.com/numpy/numpy/wiki/Numerical-software-on-Windows

"Standard numpy and scipy binary releases on Windows use pre-compiled ATLAS
libraries and are 32-bit only because of the difficulty of compiling ATLAS
on 64-bit Windows. "

Might want to double-check with the numpy folks; it would
be too bad if numpy wouldn't work on the preferred Windows Python.
