Re: [Numpy-discussion] PEP 465 has been accepted / volunteers needed

2014-04-08 Thread Travis Oliphant
Congratulations!  This is definitely a big step for array-computing with
Python.  Working with the Python devs to implement a PEP can be a
tremendous opportunity to increase your programming awareness and ability
--- as well as make some good friends.

This is a great way to get involved with both Python and the NumPy
community and have a big impact.  If you are in a position to devote
several hours a week to the task, then you won't find a better opportunity
to contribute.

Best,

-Travis

 Hey all,

 Guido just formally accepted PEP 465:

 Yay.

 The next step is to implement it, in CPython and in numpy. I have time
 to advise on this, but not to do it myself, so, any volunteers? Ever
 wanted to hack on the interpreter itself, with BDFL guarantee your
 patch will be accepted (if correct)?

 The todo list for CPython is here:
 http://legacy.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0465/#implementation-details
 There's one open question which is where the type slots should be
 added. I'd just add them to PyNumberMethods and then if someone
 objects during patch review it can be changed.

Benjamin Peterson has posted a complete patch implementing the @ operator
for Python 3.5:

http://bugs.python.org/file34762/mat-mult5.patch

Now we should implement matmul in numpy:

 Congratulations!! Getting a PEP through is very hard work, and you did a
 remarkable job.

Thank you! Though I suspect that the most important part of my
contribution may have just been my high tolerance for writing emails
;-).

 Many thanks for all your patience steering this through, as well as to 
 everyone who contributed. The level and quality of the discussion was pretty 
 impressive.

Indeed -- this never would have happened without the contributions of
many, many people, both during the conversations around the PEP this
month, and over the previous years that set the stage for this to be
possible. Thank you, everyone!
