[yt-dev] YTArray YTEP

[Nathan Goldbaum]

Hi Matt,

I think the steps you outline are a good start.  My plan to continue the units work was to try to get the unit tests passing and see what needs to get done as that process proceeds.  I'm glad to hear you're excited enough about this to get started on that work.

At the moment the work of subclassing NDArray is probably ~75% complete.  To finish we'll need to make sure we cover all of the possible ufuncs and do appropriate operations in all cases.  Having a formal spec will help in that effort.  There are also a couple of odd issues that still need to be worked out to make the code cleaner, i.e. the issue referenced in fce1e6c.

Right now all of this work is going on in Casey's yt-3.0 fork: https://bitbucket.org/caseywstark/yt-3.0.  Last week we were just pushing directly to the fork but I think now that we're all in different time zones it's probably a good idea to process further changes via pull requests to that fork.  Once everything is ready, Casey will be able to issue a pull request to the yt_analysis/yt-3.0 repository.  Does anyone disagree with that idea?

Cheers,

Nathan
