I'm still hesitant to consider ndarray part of Boost.Python; it's really
a separate library, and I think providing a full
The top of my list is improved interface to numpy. I know there is work going

I'm not using Python 3k myself, so I can't comment, but the P3K port

Two things on my list that are likely going to be somewhat disruptive are:
* Support for subclassing boost.python's own metaclass.
* A per-module type registry, to avoid conflicting converters in
multi-mo

I'd like to start work on a new major release of Boost.Python. While
the library is currently well-maintained in terms of bugfixes, I get the
sense that neither the original developers nor the current maintainer
have the time or inclination to work on new features. I'd also like to
