[Numpy-discussion] PEP 242 Numeric kinds

[Paul F Dubois]

We had put off consideration of PEP 242 Numeric kinds until June 2002
when a meeting of some interested parties was to occur but the meeting
didn't occur. I have a draft implementation and users of it but my
feeling is that although correct and useful the PEP is not useful enough
to put it in the standard library. Since it really only interests
scientific programmers I propose simply making it a separate deliverable
on the Numeric site and withdrawing the PEP.
