Do you have something specific in mind? We took the different approach
of replacing BLAS and LAPACK, rather than wrapping around them.
Although there is work left to do, we are at the point where, given
sufficient contributions, we can hope to quickly become a complete
enough replacement for a vast majority of users.

Wow, he wrote a 160-page book ?! And that's not doxygen generated, but
completely handwritten and TeX'd ?! Seriously this is impressive, but
I don't see us doing that. We simply don't have time... unless someone
volunteers!
Cheers,
