I'm working on two PEP's after discussing this with Guido at SciPy 2006. 

1) A data-type object PEP
2) An extension of the buffer protocol to include the array interface.

These are being done instead of the basearray PEP for now.  I'm hoping 
to have a draft of these ready for discussion in a few weeks.
