This post is surely OT, but I cannot imagine a better place to contact people about this subject. Please, don't blame me.
Any people here interested in NumPy/SciPy + MPI? From some time ago, I've been developing mpi4py (first release at SF) and I am really near to release a new version. This package exposes an API almost identical to MPI-2 C++ bindings. Almost all MPI-1 and MPI-2 features (even one-sided communications and parallel I/O) are fully supported for any object exposing single-segment buffer interface, an only some of them for communication of general Python objects (with the help of pickle/marshal). The posibility of constructing any user-defined MPI datatypes, as well as virtual topologies (specially cartesian), can be really nice for anyone interested in parallel multidimensional array procesing. Before the next release, I would like to wait for any comment, You can contact me via private mail to get a tarbal with latest developments, or we can have some discussion here, if many of you consider this a good idea. In the long term, I would like to see mpi4py integrated as a subpackage of SciPy.
