Thanks. I will try the SciPy list. It was a bit of a hail mary anyway. Pretty sure elevated Python types don't actually get their hands dirty with data. ;)

Since no one has answered, I suggest you narrow your searching from

Also perhaps ipython.
And then perhaps try those specific mailing lists/fora.

Since I dont know this area much, not saying more.
