> About these packages:
> 
>   SciPy is an open source library of scientific tools for Python. SciPy
>   supplements the popular Numeric module, gathering a variety of high
>   level science and engineering modules together as a single package.
>   SciPy includes modules for graphics and plotting, optimization,
>   integration, special functions, signal and image processing, genetic
>   algorithms, ODE solvers, and others.
>   
>   The purpose of the F2PY --Fortran to Python interface generator--
>   project is to provide connection between Python and Fortran languages.
>   F2PY is a Python extension tool for creating Python C/API modules from
>   (handwritten or F2PY generated) signature files (or directly from
>   Fortran sources).
> 
> I've been working together with one of the upstream authors, Pearu
> Peterson, in order to get the packages to follow the policy. There are
> no lintian warnings/errors and it follows the debian and python policies
> to the best of my knowledge.
> 
> There is an ITP bug concerning this software (see
> <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=126037>) originally
> from Joe Reinhardt, who dropped it, and I claimed it. I referred to his
> packages but these were done from scratch.
> 
> The packages are available from my repository,
> <http://jrfonseca.dyndns.org/debian/>. (Let me know if there is problems
> downloading since it appears some people can't access this site by some
> unknown reason).
