Python 3.0 will include a new buffer interface that allows extension objects to share memory regions. This allows extension objects to communicate in standard ways with each other to share multi-dimensional memory of particular data-types (including structured data types). This talk will explain the buffer interface on both the C-extension and Python level along with some of its potential uses.
