There was a problem hiding this comment.
Everyone seemed happy with the assumptions in the call we discussed it in, 1.7 wks ago. The one comment on this data interchange was "can we just say now that this will be DLPack?". That should be in the section linked here, which is for another PR. So I'll go ahead and merge this as is.
This prevents repeating the same information multiple times; we can refer to this instead.
Includes: - hardware and software environments - dependencies (including abstract dependency diagram) - backwards compatibility - production code & interactive use

The main topic of this PR is the assumptions section. This includes:
For the Python >=3.8 dependency I had to refer to the positional-only decision, so I factored out that content into a new section on function and method signatures (that shouldn't contain too much that's controversial).
