[Numpy-discussion] new ufunc implementations for object arrays

2015-09-18 Thread Allan Haldane
Hello all, I've just submitted a PR which overhauls the implementation of ufuncs for object types. https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/6320 The motivation for this is that many ufuncs (eg all transcendental functions) can't handle objects. This PR will also make object arrays more customizable,

Hi all, Thanks, Travis, for the followup. I know some people were confused or concerned by some points in Travis’s recent emails (as was I, initially), but after checking in with Travis and the NumPy steering council, it sounds like the main points of possible confusion are actually things where

Travis, I'm sure you appreciate that this might all look a bit scary, given the recent discussion about numpy governance. But it's an open-source project, and I, at least, fully understand that going through a big process is NOT the way to get a new idea tried out and implemented. So I think
