Dear fellow Pythonistas. I am pleased to announce the release of scikit-learn 0.12 <http://scikit-learn.org/stable/>. This release adds several new features, for example multidimensional scaling (MDS), multi-task Lasso and multi-output decision and regression forests. There has also been a lot of progress in documentation and ease of use. Details can be found on the what's new page <cid:part2.04060304.01070404@ais.uni-bonn.de>. Sources and windows binaries are available on sourceforge, through pypi (http://pypi.python.org/pypi/scikit-learn/0.12) or can be installed directly using pip: pip install -U scikit-learn I want to thank all of the developers who made this release possible and welcome our new contributors. Keep on learning, Andy
