[cgma-dev] CGM 13.1 and PyTAPS

[Paul Wilson]

Hi Andy, Iulian,

I've added Anthony Scopatz into this conversation, as he has a growing 
interest in PyTAPS.  He is also a python expert.  I'm not sure if he is 
on the CGMA list yet.

<nudge>Tim was also planning to move it to bitbucket soon (last month?) 
to facilitate collaborative development </nudge>
