Hi Ed, It is true that these package are a bit lagging behind, and it is partly my fault since I have not been very active lately -- way too much work in $DAYJOB, and my activity as DD has suffered a lot from this. I should be able to work on the scipy/numpy packages next week, and your help is welcome. You way want to join the deb-scipy-devel list, which has not been very active lately but is a nice channel to discuss packaging issues.
