How much of the core library can be used without any reference counting? I was originally thinking that the base ufuncs would just be functions accepting a pointer and a descriptor and handling memory allocations and such would be at a higher level. That is to say, the object oriented aspects of numpy would be removed from the bottom layers where they just get in the way. Also, since many of the public macros expect the old type structures, what is going to happen with them? They are really part of the API, but a particularly troublesome part for going forward. <snip> Chuck
