The 4th beta release of NumPy 1.0 has just been made available. NumPy 1.0 represents the culmination of over 18 months of work to unify the Numeric and Numarray array packages into a single best-of-breed array package for Python.
NumPy supports all the features of Numeric and Numarray with a healthy dose of it's own improved features. It's time to start porting your applications to use NumPy as Numeric is no longer maintained and Numarray will only be maintained for a few more months. Porting is not difficult especially using the compatibility layers numpy.oldnumeric and numpy.numarray and the alter_code1.py modules in those packages. The full C-API of Numeric is supported as is the C-API of Numarray. More information is available at http://numpy.scipy.org NumPy Developers -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
