I'm just looking at http://projects.scipy.org/scipy/ticket/1200
I agree with Ralf that the bias keyword should be changed to ddof as in the numpy functions. For functions in scipy.stats, and statistics in general, I prefer the usual axis=0 default. However, I think these functions, like scipy.stats.nanstd, should be replaced by corresponding numpy functions, which might happen relatively soon. But how soon? Is it worth deprecating bias in scipy 0.10, and then deprecate again for removal in 0.11 or 0.12?
