IIRC the intent was to port numpy/scipy to Cython and then use a C++/CLI backend for Cython to make them available; I have no idea if that was ever completed or merged to mainline. numpy/scipy used to be very tightly bound to CPython; there was a refactoring effort to reduce that so that they could be reused, but I don't know how far that got. I don't know if anyone at Enthought remembers where that effort left off, but that might a good place to start. CPython has a new "stable" C ABI (PEP 384) that may be useful, but it would still require a fair bit of work to integrate with IronPython. The old IronClad project might have some useful code there. - Jeff
