Hello Ralf, Could you add pyrap (pyrap.googlecode.com) to the list under Scientific Programming?
Pyrap is the python interface to the Radio-Astronomical Package casacore (casacore.googlecode.com). Astronomers love pyrap because it makes it easily possible to get their data (observed with radio-astronomical telescopes like LOFAR, ASKAP, and eVLA) in numpy arrays and do basic data inspection and manipulation using the many python packages that are available. Boost.Python made it quite easily possible to create converters for the various data types, also for numpy arrays and individual elements of a numpy array. It's nice they work fully recursively. Mapping C++ functions to Python was straightforward. Cheers, Ger van Diepen >>> Ralf Grosse-Kunstleve <r...@google.com> 12/15/2012 2:28 AM >>> Thanks, I've updated the web page. I simply took this from the RDkit page: A collection of cheminformatics and machine-learning software written in C++ and Python.

That link, which now re-directs to some completely different organization) should probably be removed. The software we developed that uses boost.python to expose chemistry functionality in C++ to Python has been open-sourced as the rdkit (www.rdkit.org). If there's any interest in new additions to the "projects using boost.python" page, I would be happy to provide a blurb.
