The initial version was developed at the Space Telescope Science
Institute by Perry Greenfield, Todd Miller, Richard L. White,
and J. C. Hsu.
The existance of the original numeric package was a tremendous help
in defining how a reimplementation should be designed. Although
little of its code was used, it would be fair to say that the
design choices made for how Numeric would appear to the user probably
made doing a reimplementation twice as easy as it would have been
since many of the interface issues were already solved.
We would be greatly remiss if we did not acknowledge the discussions
with, ideas from, and work contributed to the original Numeric of the
following: Travis Oliphant, Paul Dubois, David Ascher, Tim Peters, Eric
Jones, Jim Hugunin, Konrad Hinsen, Guido (you know who) and the past
Numeric developers.
