Updating for those of you not on the numpy mailing list - I've uploaded 32 / 64 bit numpy / scipy wheels to pypi, so we should be good for 32-bit compatibility now. I hope that will continue for at least a couple of years, because I've automated the 32 / 64 bit build process [1] and added 32-bit tests to my scipy-stack test rig [2]. So, I think it is time to rename the matplotlib wheels as I proposed at the beginning of the thread. I propose to do that tomorrow unless anyone can think of a reason not to.
