OK, I'm "lost" already: is there general agreement that this should "jump"
straight to one or more NEP's?  If not (or if there should be a Wiki page
for it additionally), should such become part of the NumPy Wiki @
Sourceforge or the SciPy Wiki at the scipy.org site?  If the latter, is
one's SciPy Wiki login the same as one's mailing list subscriber
maintenance login?  I guess starting such a page is not as trivial as I had
assumed.
