Not much of a heresy, I think. The numpy site recommends that *new* users start with numpy but I don't remember the numeric/numpy folks recommending that happy, experienced numeric users dump it yet. The current development version of numpy is still labelled as a development version (0.9.8, I believe) and besides bug fixes, it still made a few tweeks in the user interface and C-API from the previous version. They are aiming to release a stable NumPy 1.0 by the end of the summer. Then maybe they will start pushing it, along with a compatible array interface for Python.
