Hi all,

Charles has done a great job of backporting a lot of bug fixes to 1.6.2, see PRs 260, 261, 262 and 263. For those who are interested, please have a look at those PRs to see and comment on what's proposed to go into 1.6.2.

I also have a request for help with testing: can someone who uses MSVC test (preferably with a 2.x and a 3.x version)? I have a branch with all four PRs merged at https://github.com/rgommers/numpy/tree/bports

Thanks, Ralf

Hi Ralf,

that branch builds and tests OK with msvc9/MKL on win-amd64-py2.7 and win-amd64-py3.2. No apparent incompatibilities with scipy or matplotlib either.

Great, thanks Christoph! Ralf

Hello, with my Debian hat one I'd surely like to give it a go - do you have any plan to release a tarball for a RC (given the implication of numpy on the distro, I can't test anything else)? what do you expect to be the release date for 1.6.2? I asked this to understand the impact, due to the upcoming Debian freeze (June, still not clear if beginning or end).

We certainly have the Debian freeze date in the back of our heads. I'm aiming for an RC sometime this week and a release two weeks after that. Cheers, Ralf

Any chance pull requests 188 and 227 could make it into numpy 1.6.2?

https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/188

Looks easy to do.

https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/227

This one is isolated to random. I'll put up another PR for the backport. Chuck
