Thanks.

Is there any files or pages having information (plans) on future
development
of NumPy? I'd like to to read what features are to be included in or
excluded. That "TODO.TXT" file in distribution seems to be rather
short :-),
though Fortran direct support (at last) is a great idea!

Look - another bug? (I use Win'95, Python 1.5, Numpy10)
Maybe it is a supposed behaviour, but ...
>>> r = arange(13)
>>> r
array([ 0,  1,  2,  3,  4,  5,  6,  7,  8,  9, 10, 11, 12])
>>> ar=pow(10,r)
### ar=10**r produce the same
>>> ar
array([1, 10, 100,1000, 10000,100000,
         1000000, 10000000, 100000000, 1000000000,
       1410065408, 1215752192, -727379968])

How do you like it? I do not.
never can be 10**10 =1410065408

of course, 10.0**r gives "right" result.
