Hi David, your contribution looks good and adding nanmean is a good idea.
However, your code happens to overlap for almost 100% with an already
submitted pull request: https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/3534. I suggest
that you compare your implementation with the one in PR-3534, and maybe you
can add an example there or fix some inconsistency.

This doesn't seem all that consistent by the way. The PR doesn't have an
example, so I don't know if it behaves the same:

    >>> np.nanmean([1, np.nan, np.inf])       inf
>>> np.nanmean([1, np.nan, np.inf, np.NINF])       nan
Cheers,
Ralf
