 WHY PYTHON?

-	The Python programming language is rapidly gaining popularity
-	in the scientific community. Besides being a high-productivity
-	interpreted language, it has extensions for scientific computing

+	* The source code can be obtained using the Mercurial command:

 DEPENDENCIES:

 	* Vampy requires Python 2.7.

-	Note that Vampy does not support the new flavour of Python (3.x)
-	which breaks language compatibility with the 2.x series.
+	Note that Vampy does not support Python 3 at all at this
+ 	point.  Note also that on a Mac in normal circumstances Vampy
+ 	expects to use the system installation of Python, so plugin
+ 	modules you write should be tested using this.

-	* Vampy supports Numpy 1.1. or greater.
