On the other hand, in the current development community around numpy, and among the subscribers to this mailing list, I suspect there is more Cython experience than C++ experience. Of course it might be that so-far undiscovered C++ developers are drawn to a C++ rewrite of Numpy. But it that really likely? I can see a C++ developer being drawn to C++ performance library they would use in their C++ applications, but it's harder for me to imagine a C++ programmer being drawn to a Python library because the internals are C++.
