Essential, yes. The main difference is that everything is imported
under the "pysparse" umbrella. You will have to change your code form
>>> import pysparse_module
to
>>> import pysparse.pysparse_module as pysparse_module
This change eradicated the name space pollution and cleaned up site-packages.

Yes as outlined above.

Yes, at least it is designed to. You need to specify that you want to
use Numeric in setup.py.

There is no added functionality so it may not be worth it. The changes
were required to stay current with the rest of the scientific python
