What about to implement diffusive nested sampling? http://arxiv.org/abs/0912.2380

That would be cool.

There is, of course, the C++ implementation associated with the paper (DNest3). It would be nice if a Python wrapper for DNest3 existed to be able to compare performance, but I don't know of one. One issue with DNest3 is its GPLv3 license, which is sub-optimal in a lot of people's minds lately.

I personally am more familiar with ellipsoidal nested sampling, so I'm focused on that for now. But I'll leave this open for a possible future extension.
