[AstroPy] Release of ndcube 1.0

[Stuart Mumford]

The SunPy project is very happy to announce the release of a new package 
"ndcube".

ndcube is a package built for handling, inspecting and visualizing a 
wide variety of data, of any number of dimensions, along with coordinate 
information described by FITS-WCS. The NDCube object is based on the 
astropy NDData class, and adds functionality for slicing both the data 
and the WCS simultaneously, plotting with matplotlib and support for 
extra coordinate information along any of the axes not described by WCS.

In addition to this the ndcube package provides the NDCubeSequence class 
for representing sequences of NDCube objects where the coordinate 
information may or may not align, and accessing these sequences in a way 
consistent with a singular cube.

The ndcube development has been lead by Daniel Ryan with contributions 
from the following people:

  * Daniel Ryan
  * Ankit Baruah
  * Stuart Mumford
  * Mateo Inchaurrandieta
  * Nabil Freij
  * Drew Leonard
  * Shelbe Timothy


A lot of the design and development of ndcube was done as part of 
Ankit's Google Summer of Code project in the summer of 2017.

For more information about ndcube see the documentation 
<http://docs.sunpy.org/projects/ndcube/>.

ndcube can be installed from pip or conda using the following commands:


   $ conda install -c conda-forge ndcube


   $ pip install ndcube


Happy Pythoning,

Stuart Mumford
