That still looks like it's not an insane amount of work.

We probably want to make sure there is a documentation update also, maybe

The biggest chuck of recent changes is for the polynomial and chebyshev
docs, can you give your opinion on those Charles? The OK to Apply is set to
True for all of them, but I'm not sure who did that. The patch generation
won't work for many of those docs, so if you could check if any docs should
be merged manually right now that would be useful.

@ David G: there are some conflicts in docs you recently edited,
http://docs.scipy.org/numpy/merge/. Would you mind resolving those?

Thanks,
Ralf
