+In place fancy indexing for ufuncs
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+The function ``at`` has been added to ufunc objects to allow in place
+ufuncs using fancy indexing with no buffering. For example, the following
+will increment the first and second items in the array, and will increment
+the third item twice:
+numpy.add.at(array, [0, 1, 2, 2], 1)
+
+This is similar to doing array[[0, 1, 2, 2]] += 1
