But I know myself well enough to know I wasn't going to get the critical mass required to make it useful by myself, so I've moved on to an ecosystem that is doing most of the work already. Also, you have the problem that there is one PyPi -- so where do you put your nifty wheels that depend on other binary wheels? you may need to fork every package you want to build :-( But sure, let's get the core scipy stack pip-installable as much as possible -- and maybe some folks with more energy than me can move this all forward.
