Hi Ole and Yury,
In general I don't mind at all moving (or better -- having moved ;) )
any of those packages under debian-science maintenance! Which one
would you like to start with? e.g. statsmodels is indeed the
interesting one. I have just uploaded fresh pandas (which brought new
FTBFS :-/) with hope that some might just go away in statsmodels, but
that didn't happen. I am still slowly working with statsmodels and
have some non-pushed changes, but if you are keen to start with e.g.
pandas and fixing up any of those issues as it being a part of Debian
science -- it would be awesome. Just let me know which package(s) you
want to start with so we don't overlap.
Cheers,
