+        casacore (<a href="http://casacore.googlecode.com/"
+        >casacore.googlecode.com</a>). Astronomers love pyrap because
+        it makes it easily possible to get their data (observed with
+        radio-astronomical telescopes like LOFAR, ASKAP, and eVLA) in numpy
+        arrays and do basic data inspection and manipulation using the many
+        python packages that are available.</p>
+
+        <p>Boost.Python made it quite easily possible to create converters for
+        the various data types, also for numpy arrays and individual elements
+        of a numpy array. It's nice they work fully recursively. Mapping C++
+        functions to Python was straightforward.</p>

-      Rational Discovery provides computational modeling, combinatorial
-      library design and custom software development services to the
-      pharmaceutical, biotech and chemical industries. We do a substantial
-      amount of internal research to develop new approaches for applying
-      machine-learning techniques to solve chemical problems. Because we're a
-      small organization and chemistry is a large and complex field, it is
-      essential that we be able to quickly and easily prototype and test new
-      algorithms.
-
-      <p>For our internal software, we implement core data structures in C
-      and expose them to Python using Boost.Python. Algorithm development is
-      done in Python and then translated to C if required (often it's not).
-      This hybrid development approach not only greatly increases our
-      productivity, but it also allows "non-developers" (people without C
-      experience) to take part in method development. Learning C is a
-      daunting task, but "Python fits your brain." (Thanks to Bruce Eckel for
-      the quote.)</p>
+      A collection of cheminformatics and machine-learning software
