I was wondering about the difficulties involved in adding the python c api, since it would be extremely useful.
Hey Seth, I used to be skeptical about supporting the C API in CLPython, but now IronPython (the .Net implementation) has started to support C extensions with a component called IronClad, with apparently most of NumPy already working: http://www.resolversystems.com/products/ironclad/ Interesting implementation details: http://ironclad.googlecode.com/svn-history/r108/trunk/doc/details.txt That they got it working is a nice surprise. But I don't know if their approach would work for CLPython... - Willem
