No, not beyond installing it to see if it works.

I expect to start to transition within a few months of both numpy and
pyfits-with-numpy being released and being reported as stable and fast.

Please improve notification of documentation updates. I keep seeing
complaints from folks who've bought the numpy documentation that they
get no notification of updates. That makes me very reluctant to buy the
documentation myself.
I wish that full support for masked arrays had made it in (i.e. masked
arrays are first class citizens that are accepted by all functions). The
inability in numeric to apply 2d filters on masked image arrays is the
main thing missing for me in numarray.
