I'm mostly interested in it as a way to speed up access to pixel data. To get that, wouldn't we need to have a stronger dependency on it, so that Image.pixels can return a numpy array? Also, given my interest in speed, I'd like to keep the option to move to pypy open. Perhaps that conflicts with my first point ;) Cheers, Alex _______________________________________________ Bf-committers mailing list Bf-committers@blender.org http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers
