Who uses numexpr

[Nicolas Barbey]

I would like to know if there is a list somewhere of company/
organizations using numexpr as well as a list of packages depending on
numexpr.
I already know PyTables makes heavy use of numexpr.
The point is that with a good list of users, other people may feel
more confident about adding numexpr as a dependency in their own code
and would not fear about numexpr not being maintained anymore in the
future.

No, to my knowledge, there is not such a list. Through the time, there have been several contributors to the project, but most the time it was because they had some itch to scratch. But really, this is how open source projects work, right?

Take care,

Francesc

Thanks for you answer. I agree indeed that it is the usual life of
open source projects.
Still, I think that a list of important users could help promote
numexpr. In this spirit, I found this page on the PyTables home site :

Since PyTables uses numexpr heavily, this in my opinion makes a good
advertisement for numexpr. It proves its usefulness and stability and
can help convince others to use numexpr.
(I am a very happy numexpr user myself).
