Hi, A couple of years ago there was a flurry of work partially at my instigation at SciPy 2009 to build a better median function based on a select algorithm rather than a sort algorithm. It seemed that it had progressed quite far, but the code in lib/function_base.py still uses a sort. Has the select work been abandoned or could it be merged in with a little spit-and-polish? (Or has it been and I'm just too naive to have seen it?) It seemed that the work had gotten quite close to release - I would hate to see it lost. (Not to mention I am greedy for the speed-up.)
