I'm sure you realized that I was 92.5% in jest.
That is actually a very good point. You can often get great answers on
programming forums such as stackoverflow. On the other hand, Matlab
Central is one stop shopping. Great threads on questions. And, most
importantly, programming solutions and useful bits -- with ratings and
comment threads.
I think the place to host this is at with scipy. If you propose it to
them, I would back it.

While this comment is perfectly correct, it does highlight one of the
problems with using python for scientific computing in comparison to
matlab. If a newbie has a matlab problem, then they can go to a
matlab forum and expect to get a reasonable answer. But if that
problem occurs in python, then a beginner might need to ask their
question in a python, spyder, numpy, scipy, pyqt etc. forum, and if
you aren't familiar with the full tool stack and the relationship
between all the parts, it could be a bit confusing (the same goes for
reading through documentation). So I would advocate being forgiving
of slightly off-topic questions.
