First I want to give David Cournapeau a big thank you for all his hard work as release manager for the last few years. It is a lot of work and he has done a great job managing the releases (not to mention all the work he has done as one of the primary developers). I also want to thank Patrick

I think all of this makes perfect sense, and I'm willing to commit to at least the next 2 years. I'm glad to hear there will be some help initially, as I know I will need some spinup time/help. I'm currently out of town and away from my macbook pro, but when I get back I'll try to set up a build

Hi, as I already hinted to some people in person, I won't make new releases of numpy (and scipy) as I used to. To ease the transition, I think it would be good to have new people with who we could make say the 1.4.1 release together. Making installers is relatively streamlined now, it can be done
