Hey Everybody! SLEP 17 <https://scikit-learn-enhancement-proposals.readthedocs.io/en/latest/slep017/...> (by Joel Nothman) introduces an __sklearn_clone__ protocol & method that allows estimators to overload what sklearn's clone function does. An implementation for this SLEP is available in PR 24568 <https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/pull/24568> (by Thomas Fan). Feedback to both the SLEP and implementation are welcome! If you are a scikit-learn core developer, please cast your vote in this PR <https://github.com/scikit-learn/enhancement_proposals/pull/79>. .
