Normally we only do bugfix releases for specific reasons, so besides those I just scan through the list of commits and pick only some relevant ones of which I'm sure that they won't give any problems. The fixed items under http://projects.scipy.org/numpy/query?status=closed&group=resolution&milestone=1.7.0 http://projects.scipy.org/numpy/query?status=closed&group=resolution&milestone=2.0.0 probably give the best overview.
