NumPy 1.12.0rc1
by Charles R Harris 20 Dec '16

20 Dec '16

Hi All, I am pleased to announce the release of NumPy 1.12.0rc1. This release supports Python 2.7 and 3.4 - 3.6 and is the result of 406 pull requests submitted by 139 contributors and comprises a large number of fixes and improvements. Among the many improvements it is difficult to pick out just a few as standing above the others, but the following may be of particular interest or indicate areas likely to have future consequences. * Order of operations in ``np.einsum`` can now be optimized for large speed improvements. * New ``signature`` argument to ``np.vectorize`` for vectorizing with core dimensions. * The ``keepdims`` argument was added to many functions. * New context manager for testing warnings * Support for BLIS in numpy.distutils * Much improved support for PyPy (not yet finished) The release notes are quite sizable and rather than put them inline I've attached them as a file. They may also be viewed at Github <https://github.com/numpy/numpy/releases/tag/v1.12.0rc1>. Zip files and tarballs may also be found the Github link. Wheels and a zip archive are available from PyPI, which is the recommended method of installation. Cheers, Charles Harris

[RELEASE] Python 2.7.13
by Benjamin Peterson 17 Dec '16

17 Dec '16

It is my pleasure to announce the release of Python 2.7.13, the latest bugfix release of the venerable Python 2.7 series. This release incorporates conservative bugfixes as well as improvements to keep Python 2.7 running on modern systems. The only change from the 2.7.13 release candidate 2 weeks ago is the revert of a change that broke backwards compatibility with some rare C extension patterns. See https://bugs.python.org/issue5322 for more details. Source archives and binaries are available at https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-2713/ Please report bugs to our tracker: https://bugs.python.org/ 2.7.14 will appear mid-2017. All the best in the new year, Benjamin Peterson 2.7 release manager

by Ned Deily 17 Dec '16

17 Dec '16

On behalf of the Python development community and the Python 3.6 release team, I would like to announce the availability of Python 3.6.0rc2. 3.6.0rc2 is the second release candidate for Python 3.6, the next major release of Python. Code for 3.6.0 is now frozen. 3.6.0rc2 is the same code base as the first release candidate, 3.6.0rc1, with the addition of fixes for a couple of critical problems and with some documentation additions and updates. Assuming no further release critical problems are found prior to the 3.6.0 final release date, now planned for 2016-12-23, the 3.6.0 final release will be the same code base as this 3.6.0rc2. Maintenance releases for the 3.6 series will follow at regular intervals starting in the first quarter of 2017. Among the new major new features in Python 3.6 are: * PEP 468 - Preserving the order of **kwargs in a function * PEP 487 - Simpler customization of class creation * PEP 495 - Local Time Disambiguation * PEP 498 - Literal String Formatting * PEP 506 - Adding A Secrets Module To The Standard Library * PEP 509 - Add a private version to dict * PEP 515 - Underscores in Numeric Literals * PEP 519 - Adding a file system path protocol * PEP 520 - Preserving Class Attribute Definition Order * PEP 523 - Adding a frame evaluation API to CPython * PEP 524 - Make os.urandom() blocking on Linux (during system startup) * PEP 525 - Asynchronous Generators (provisional) * PEP 526 - Syntax for Variable Annotations (provisional) * PEP 528 - Change Windows console encoding to UTF-8 * PEP 529 - Change Windows filesystem encoding to UTF-8 * PEP 530 - Asynchronous Comprehensions Please see "What’s New In Python 3.6" for more information: https://docs.python.org/3.6/whatsnew/3.6.html You can find Python 3.6.0rc2 here: https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-360rc2/ Note that 3.6.0rc2 is still a preview release and thus its use is not recommended for production environments. More information about the release schedule can be found here: https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0494/ -- Ned Deily nad(a)python.org -- []

PyCA/cryptography 1.7 released
by Paul Kehrer 12 Dec '16

12 Dec '16

PyCA cryptography 1.7 has been released to PyPI. cryptography is a package which provides cryptographic recipes and primitives to Python developers. Our goal is for it to be your "cryptographic standard library". We support Python 2.6-2.7, Python 3.3+, and PyPy. Changelog (https://cryptography.io/en/latest/changelog/#id1): * Support for OpenSSL 1.0.0 has been removed. Users on older version of OpenSSL will need to upgrade. * Added support for Diffie-Hellman key exchange using exchange() * The OS random engine for OpenSSL has been rewritten to improve compatibility with embedded Python and other edge cases. More information about this change can be found in the pull request. Thanks to everyone who helped with this release! The upcoming cryptography 1.8 will (among other features) switch our static wheels to link against OpenSSL 1.1.0. -Paul Kehrer (reaperhulk)
