I'm currently using the mvncdf.py code you posted to the list but unless I'm
mistaken it hasn't made the cut for 0.7 and there's no enhancement ticket for
it in trac. It's a very useful function for me (and others I'm sure) so it
would be a shame for it to just be forgotten as an list attachment. Should I 
file an enhancement ticket?
