Mailman 3 December 2017 - yt-dev

by Nathan Goldbaum

FYI this will knock out the yt hub and our test bots. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Christopher P. Lindsey <lindsey(a)ncsa.illinois.edu> Date: Mon, Dec 18, 2017 at 2:12 PM Subject: Nebula outage Jan 2-5 To: "nebula-announce(a)ncsa.illinois.edu" <nebula-announce(a)ncsa.illinois.edu> Nebula will be shut down completely for maintenance starting at 9am CST on Tuesday, January 2nd, 2018 through 5pm CST on Friday, January 5th, 2018. The downtime will be used to install operating system and kernel patches, install firmware and BIOS updates, and replace some hardware. If your instances are running at the start of maintenance we will shut them down. They will be restarted once maintenance is complete. If maintenance finishes early we will send out a notification to let everyone know that services are back online. Chris

Proposal: Drop support for Python2.7 in 2019

by Nathan Goldbaum

Hi all, I'd like to let both the yt-users and yt-dev mailing list know about a proposal I am making to drop support in yt for Python 2.7 sometime in 2019. I've written up a YTEP (yt enhancement proposal) that formalizes this proposal. Please see the text for details: https://github.com/ngoldbaum/ytep/blob/master/source/YTEPs/YTEP-0033.rst If you have strong feelings about yt's support for Python 2.7 (for or against) I'd love to hear your thoughts as comments on the pull request to the YTEP repository: https://github.com/yt-project/ytep/pull/3 To avoid splitting the conversation, please do not reply to this e-mail and instead make a comment on the pull request. Once the discussion is finished I will make another e-mail describing what we agree to. -Nathan

Call for code review

by Nathan Goldbaum

Hi all, I would very much appreciate it if we could get some eyes on the following pull requests: * Add a cookbook recipe for a multipanel phase plot: https://github.com/yt-project/yt/pull/1605 * Make covering_grid work with yt's parallelism: https://github.com/yt-project/yt/pull/1612 * Automatically set up particle filter dependencies: https://github.com/yt-project/yt/pull/1624 * Improvements for the WarpX frontend: https://github.com/yt-project/yt/pull/1634 * Improvements for the quiver callback: https://github.com/yt-project/yt/pull/1636 * Use python_requires in yt's setup.py: https://github.com/yt-project/yt/pull/1640 * Fix bug related to dataset caching in the tests: https://github.com/yt-project/yt/pull/1643 All of these are passing the tests and are ready to merge in my opinion. However, I don't want us to get into a situation where only one person is regularly reviewing code. It would be really nice if one or two of you could go through this list and give all these pull requests a review. If you don't have time for that, just look over the ones that strike your interest. Thanks very much for your help! -Nathan

Fwd: [AstroPy] Reminder: Complete your application for Python in Astronomy 2018 this week!

by Nathan Goldbaum

It would be *awesome* if we could have some representation from yt at this conference. Unfortunately I'm not going to be able to go because of a conflicting conference on the same dates that I need to attend. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Matthew Craig <mcraig(a)mnstate.edu> Date: Mon, Dec 4, 2017 at 1:39 PM Subject: [AstroPy] Reminder: Complete your application for Python in Astronomy 2018 this week! To: Astronomical Python mailing list <astropy(a)python.org> Hi, This is a friendly reminder that applications for Python in Astronomy 2018 close this week. The application form is open until 23:59UTC on Dec 9, 2017. Python in Astronomy 2018 will be held 30 Apr - 4 May 2018 at the Center for Computational Astrophysics at the Flatiron Institute in New York, NY. Thanks to generous support from the Flatiron Institute, there is no conference fee, and there will be limited travel support available. The application form is at: https://goo.gl/forms/AGuoU8mUFv3WJ8Qn2 More information about the conference, and links to past years, is available at: http://openastronomy.org/pyastro/2018/ Finally, a brief excerpt from the description of the conference: In addition to sharing information about state-of-the art Python Astronomy packages, the workshop will focus on improving interoperability between astronomical Python packages, mentoring open-source contributors, and developing educational materials for Python in Astronomy. The meeting is therefore not only aimed at current developers and users, but also educators or others who are interested in being involved in these efforts. Participant selection will be made with the goal of enhancing the Python in Astronomy community and we particularly encourage requests to attend from junior astronomers and people who are new to contributing to open source software. Effort will also be made to select participants who have a demonstrated potential to contribute meaningfully to the Python in Astronomy infrastructure via providing educational materials, documentation, and/or coding. This conference is neither intended to be an introduction to Python nor only for expert-level Python developers.
