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
