I'm not 100% sure but it might be the case that numpy 2.0 will be a more tricky transition than python 3.0 for us. Part of that is maturity of the project, part of it is the relative depth/breadth of the changes, and part of it is how deeply we rely on it. From what I can tell it has been taking quite a toll on @neutrinoceros who has been Atlas-like in bearing the burden.
