Hi Tim, It's tricky to find functionality sometimes because as you've seen numpy and especially scipy are spread over very diverse domains with very diverse terminology! Usually someone on one or the other of the lists can help folks find some functionality, if not by name than by

I missed the original post but I personally find this addition especially useful for my work in computational neuroscience. I did something vaguely similar in a small framework (http://dana.loria.fr/, you can look more specifically at http://dana.loria.fr/doc/connection.html for details).
