Unable to continue maintaining pandas windows binary builds

Chang and I aren't able (and have not been for a long time) to provide the care and attention needed to maintain the pandas Windows binaries and also the documentation builds. I'd like to find an alternative solution soon. pandas can't be the only project with this problem. Any ideas? - Wes

Heads-Up: 0.13 final
by yoval p. Jan. 14, 2014

Jan. 14, 2014

Hi guys and happy holidays, Status on 0.13: - The bug queue is empty - Windows is green here - We're awaiting confirmation on final sparc fixes from @yarikoptic - The RC period has maxed it's potential IMO. Instead of an RC2 as we planned, I suggest we release the final and hold off on new code for a couple of weeks (an RC except by name). That'll get more users trying it out but still leaves us a window to release 0.13.1 if we must. After that we'll launch the new 3 month release cycle for 0.14. Some PRs are already waiting in the queue so as to get maximum testing over the period until 0.14. Hopefully over time more and more of the big changes will be ready to merge at the beginning of a new cycle rather then near it's end. Wes & chang, are you cool with jreback/me tagging 0.13 once everything is in place? The ANN and binaries can follow when you manage to spare the time. Hopefully, with me watching the windows CI and jreback squashing them bugs conan-style that shouldn't take up much time. - Y

pandas 0.13 timeline

hi all, sorry I haven't been much help last few months. PyData is next weekend and I definitely plan to have a 0.13 RC cut by then. I'll try to get to remaining PR reviews you asked me about and I'll tinker with the windows build machine tomorrow and report any windows-specific failures. - Wes

ok my fault for doing bug fixes but I think consensus of a rc2 with nothing except really really critical stuff seems windows build are already updated via Jenkins just need an announcement and copy of the latest windows to the rc2 filenames any objections? Jeff
