At the recent NumPy sprint at BIDS (thanks to those who made the trip) we spent some time brainstorming about a roadmap for NumPy, in the spirit of similar work that was done for Jupyter. The idea is that a document with wide community acceptance can guide the work of the full-time developer(s), and be a source of ideas for expanding development efforts.
I put the document up at https://github.com/numpy/numpy/wiki/NumPy-Roadmap, and hope to discuss it at a BOF session during SciPy in the middle of July in Austin. Eventually it could become a NEP or formalized in another way. Matti
Some things I have seen mentioned but don't know the current plans for:
- Categorical arrays
- Releasing the GIL wherever possible
- Using multithreading internally
- making use of the next generation blas when available and stay involved in planning to make sure it supports our needs
- Figure out where to use Cython and were not to
