While 24.2 is the latest version of Numeric, it's also three years old
and no longer supported.  From http://numpy.scipy.org/ - "Numeric was
the first arrayobject built for Python.  It has been quite successful
and is used in a wide variety of settings and applications.
Maintenance has ceased for Numeric, and users should transisition to
NumPy as quickly as possible."

So, you are unlikely to find anyone to do bug fixes on Numeric.
