I'm not sure he is suggesting that they be part of a sympy namespace package, just that their github repositories can be hosted under the sympy github organization. After pushing for scikits, I think umbrella namespace packages (distinct from organization-owned namespace packages like enthought) are more trouble than they're worth, whether implemented with setuptools or pkgutils. -- Robert Kern "I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth." -- Umberto Eco -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sympy" group.
