 Numpy improvements
 ------------------

-is also available.
+This is more of a project-container than a single project. Possible ideas:
 
-.. _`list of topics`: https://bitbucket.org/pypy/extradoc/src/extradoc/planning/micronumpy.txt
+* experiment with auto-vectorization using SSE or implement vectorization
+  without automatically detecting it for array operations.
+
+* improve numpy, for example implement memory views.
+
+* interface with fortran/C libraries.

+Win64:
+To decouple the cpython machine level long from the faked integer
+of the target rpython, I replaced most 'lltype.Signed' by 'rffi.LONG'.
+It would be nicer to replace all lltypes constants by rffi equivalents,
+or better if we had a way to address the specific different types of
+the current and the target system layout explicitly.
+Let's think of that when we go further and make the target completely
+independent and configurable.
+Why most and not all replaced?
+Tests with direct tests become cumbersome, instead of direct number
+assignment rffi.setintfield(s, 'x', 123) must be used.
