Hi All, The silence after the 1.10 beta has been eerie. Consequently, I'm thinking of making a first release candidate this weekend. If you haven't yet tested the beta, please do so. It would be good to discover as many problems as we can before the first release. Chuck

Thanks for the write-up Nathaniel. There is a lot of great detail and interesting ideas here. I've am very eager to understand how to help NumPy and the wider community move forward however I can (my passions on this have not changed since 1999, though what I myself spend time on has changed).

Hi Nathaniel, Thanks for the notes. In some sense, the new dtype class(es) will provided a way of formalizing these `weird` metadata, and probably exposing them to Python. May I add that please consider adding a way to declare the sorting order (priority and direction) of fields in a structured

Thanks for the good summary Nathaniel. Regarding dtype machinery, I agree casting is the hardest part. Unless the code has changed dramatically, this was the main reason why you could not make most of the dtypes separate from numpy codebase (I tried to move the datetime dtype out of multiarray
