NEP 32 is available at
https://numpy.org/neps/nep-0032-remove-financial-functions.html

Recent timeline:

   - 30-Aug-2019 - A pull request with NEP 32 submitted.
   - 03-Sep-2019 - Announcement of the NEP 32 pull request on the
   NumPy-Discussion mailing list, with the text of the NEP included in the
   email.
   - 08-Sep-2019 - NEP 32 announced on the PyData mailing list (not
   standard procedure, but suggested in a response to the email in
   NumPy-Discussion).
   - 09-Sep-2019 - NEP 32 pull request merged.
   - 11-Sep-2019 - Emails sent to the NumPy-Discussion and PyData mailing
   lists with links to the online version of the NEP.

Only one user (speaking for a group of 12 or so) expressed a preference for
keeping the functions in NumPy, and that user acknowledged "Probably not a
huge inconvenience if we would have to use another library". (The NEP
includes a plan to provide an alternative package for the functions.)
 Several other users were in favor of removing them.  Among the current
NumPy developers who have expressed an opinion, all are in favor of
removing the functions.

There have been no additional email responses since the reminder was sent
on September 11.

In accordance with NEP 0, I propose that the status of NEP 32 be changed to
*Accepted*. If there are no substantive objections within 7 days from this
email, then the NEP will be accepted; see NEP 0 for more details (
https://numpy.org/neps/nep-0000.html#how-a-nep-becomes-accepted).
