The pythonxy-linux group is no more active . Why ?
Because the problem of "Python packages for sciences" is much more acute for Windows Users than for Linux Users.
The (Windows) list ofPythonxyModules is very usefull for non-redondency, either for Windows or for Linux.
The python-**** packages in Ubuntu (as an example) is an exhaustive proposition. The restriction of this list of packages to the Pythonxyproposition is usefull for Linux users and Windows users as well
To my knowledge, all the packages of recent Ubuntu (I don't know for others distributions ) include the Pythonxymodules.
Then, the packages installer-maintainer softwares on Linux distributions, for which no equivalent exists on Windows, disable the need of an Linux mirror-like of Pythonxy, which in turn, is essentialfor windowsusers.
I hopethis clarificationon Pythonxy for Linux status will be helpful.
