I am probably a little biased on this because I've been using Pierre's maskedarray module with the timeseries module for a while now, but I am definitely in favor of this. The timeseries module in it's current form wouldn't really be possible with the current numpy.ma because of subclassing issues (well, it would be a lot uglier anyway). The maskedarray module in the sandbox works very well and the few bugs I've encountered Pierre has been quick to implement fixes for. The fact that it works seamlessly as a drop in replacement in matplotlib is a good sign as far as backwards compatibility. - Matt _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list [email protected] http://projects.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
