include IPython julia magics?

[stevengj]

Should the IPython julia magics be incorporated into the pyjulia package? It probably makes more sense here than in IJulia. (See also JuliaLang/IJulia.jl#80)

Also, should pyjulia be moved to JuliaLang, to give it a higher profile and access among Julia maintainers?

Absolutely (once this is in a little better shape).

I stopped working on this when I hit some roadblocks do to the limited nature of the julia c-api at the time. @tknopp's work JuliaLang/julia#4997 looks like it is nearly completed so I can pick this up again once that get's merged. I think having a really nice python -> julia interop story will help with adoption so moving it to JuliaLang would make sense. It's pretty hacky right now, it might make more sense to move it over when it is more polished.

In general, @JeffBezanson has been very receptive about any needed extensions to the jl C API for this sort of thing.

Maybe needs some more bumbs :-)

Let's put this on our agenda for tomorrow afternoon face to face. Crashing now.
