So, I can certainly do that by Wednesday. I think much of the difficulty will be getting the code up to 100% doctest coverage. It's not really feasible for Nicolas to write all those doctests. I'm happy to contribute doctests for my section; do we need to get a secondary reviewer in that case? David
