+1, but I must mention that I might be short of time over the coming weeks as I am about to move to another continent, so unfortunately I have a ton of other things to do :-)

 - Extensive documentation (although the docs need some more „love“ for 0.10)
 - Easy to use API for prototyping and testing algorithms (probably covered by "Pythonic API“)

I have mainly used skimage for prototyping, but did not directly mention it in a publication.
