Announcement: scikits-image 0.4
===============================
We're happy to announce the 0.4 release of scikits-image, an image processing
toolbox for SciPy.
Please visit our examples gallery to see what we've been up to:
http://scikits-image.org/docs/0.3/auto_examples/
Note that, in this release, we renamed the module from ``scikits.image`` to
``skimage``, to work around name space conflicts with other scikits (similarly,
the machine learning scikit is now imported as ``sklearn``).
A big shout-out also to everyone currently at SciPy India; have fun, and
remember to join the scikits-image sprint!
This release runs under all major operating systems where Python (>=2.6 or
3.x), NumPy and SciPy can be installed.
For more information, visit our website

New Features
------------
- Module rename from ``scikits.image`` to ``skimage``
- Contour finding
- Grey-level co-occurrence matrices
- Skeletonization and medial axis transform
- Convex hull images
- New test data sets
- GDAL I/O plugin
... as well as some bug fixes.

That is looking fantastic. Hopefully when winter break gets here I'll
have some time to make some more contributions. Great job!

Hi all,
I think we are basically ready to tag 0.4! If you know of any issue
that needs to be addressed urgently, let me know.
The gallery is also filling up very nicely!

E.g, you'll see the contour finding by Zach Pincus that was merged
today, and the grey-level co-occurrence matrix work by Neil Yager.
According to Ohloh, we now have about 10,000 lines of Python code, vs,
e.g., scikit-learn's 30,000. Keep it coming!
Cheers
Stéfan
