In the Spring of 2008, the SciPy Documentation Project began to write documentation for NumPy and SciPy. Starting from 8658 words, the NumPy reference pages now have over 110,000 words, producing an 884-page PDF document. These pages need to undergo both presentation and technical review. Our plans include SciPy documentation as well as several user guides, tutorials, and pamphlets. A critical need at this point is a stable funding stream to support the Documentation Coordinators who have been instrumental to the success of this project.
