[SciPy-User] scikits.timeseries: How to define frequency of 15minutes

[Georges Schutz]

I found some time to have a look at the virtual environments and this is 
a very interesting extension that I did not know yet. Thanks for that 
orientation.

Concerning the sandbox I have a problem as scikits.timeseries is linked 
against numpy that is installed as binary on my winxp python environment 
and compiled using MSVC++. I only use MinGW and do not have MSVC++. Is 
there a possibility to overcome this situation? Do I need to rebuild 
numpy using MinGW (is this even possible)? What other dependencies will 
I encounter?

I apologise for all this problems. Perhaps I should wait until the new 
official version of scikits.timeseries comes out.
