I'm astonished that our BDFL doesn't speak up on this issue. IIRC, it was the (his?) plan to let the numpy community develop an interface, which would then be included into Python.

Where's the PEP? You don't expect me to argue the point for the numpy community do you? Once there's a PEP I'll read it and comment. Last I saw this thread Travis was asking for volunteers to write the PEP. Personally I think this is too close to the Python 2.5 release schedule to go ahead; but that's really up to the release managers. However, without a PEP there's an automatic "no".
