Thanks Tim,

Ironclad looks interesting. Will investigate it. Thanks for the reference!

The promising thing regarding efforts: most, if not all of it has been done already in our Computing Engine. In fact people maintain wrappers around the (Matlab'isch) ILNumerics which mimic the numpy API and tend to be rather thin. The effort therefore would establish in getting rid of such wrappers and to handle the internal storage differences directly in ILNumerics. But of course, this needs to be done also...

Hi Haymo,

I am very interested in having IPy support Numpy. I would be willing to
support the effort if you need some help.


Numpy is a problem because of the amount of C extensions. The best hope,
IMHO, is ironclad which marshalls objects around. Pawel and I spent a bit
of time getting a clean build of ironclad, but whether it was actually
functional or not remains to be seen. We were going for clean builds as a
first step. Actually getting Numpy to be .NET native is going to be a LOT
of work.

Unfortunately, I have changed employers and am not that focused on .NET any
more. My main interest these days would be to see IronPython3 moving
forward (out of fondness for the platform).

Cheers,

Thanks,

Hi Alex and all!



Thanks for the interesting news and for all the work done so far! There
are considerations at ILNumerics to add numpy support to IronPython. So I
would like to closely follow plans and progress of the main project. If
there is a chance to attend the upcoming meeting I would like to
participate as well.



My timezone is CEST / Berlin.



Best regards
Haymo

*Subject:* [Ironpython-users] Community Meeting



Hello IronPythonistas!



Jeff Hardy has handed over the mangement of IronPython to myself and
Benedikt Eggers. We are hoping to recruit some new people to contribute to
IronPython and get some releases out. We would like to have a community
meeting to discuss future direction for IronPython. We're planning on
holding the meeting on Gitter, you can find the room here:
https://gitter.im/IronLanguages/main.



I would like to cover the following agenda topics, but would definitely
like to hear from community members what they would like to discuss as
well.



- IronRuby - What do we want to do here?

- Issue disposition - there are currently about 961 issues, with most
having been ported from CodePlex.

- Release schedule - I would like to do more rolling releases, getting
features and fixes out faster, but still maintaining stability

- Continuous Integration - I was, for some time a contributor on the
Jenkins project, I am approaching CloudBees to see what might be available
for open source projects

- IronPython 3 - Roadmap to IronPython 3, which would be Python 3
compatible.



Please reply back if you are interested in attending the meeting and
specify your timezone. I'd like to make the meeting as easy to attend as
possible for the most amount of people. We won't be able to get everyone,
but I would like to get as many as possible. I would like to hold the
meeting this Thursday.



Thanks!



Alex Earl
