I'm pleased to announce that the next version of the RDKit -- 2017.09 -- is
released. The release notes are below.

The release files are on the github release page:
https://github.com/rdkit/rdkit/releases/tag/Release_2017_09_1

Binaries have been uploaded to anaconda.org (https://anaconda.org/rdkit).
The available conda binaries for this release are:
Linux 64bit: python 2.7, 3.5, 3.6
Mac OS 64bit: python 2.7, 3.5, 3.6
Windows 64bit: python 2.7, 3.5, 3.6

I left out the Win32 python2.7 build this time. If that's important to
someone, let me know and I'll see if I can get it working again.

Some notes on the conda builds:
- These builds are tested with conda v4.3.25 and, as of the release date,
are very unlikely to work with anything newer than that. This thread has
more information on that: https://www.mail-archive.com/rdkit-discuss@lists.
sourceforge.net/msg07315.html
- The conda builds now depend on numpy 1.13 instead of 1.11.
- The Mac and Linux builds now use v1.63 of boost. The rdkit conda channel
has the appropriate binaries.

Some things that will be finished over the next couple of days:
- The conda build scripts will be updated to reflect the new version and
new conda builds will be available in the RDKit channel at anaconda.org (
https://anaconda.org/rdkit).
- The homebrew script
- The online version of the documentation at rdkit.org

Thanks to everyone who submitted bug reports and suggestions for this
release!

Please let me know if you find any problems with the release or have
suggestions for the next one, which is scheduled for March 2018.

Best Regards,
-greg

# Release_2017.09.1
(Changes relative to Release_2017.03.1)

## Important
- The fix for bug #1567 changes the way fragment SMILES are canonicalized.
  MolFragmentToSmiles() and canonicalizeFragment() will now often return
  different results
- The fix for bug #1604 changes the behavior of QueryAtom::setQuery(), which
  now deletes the current query before setting the new value. If you are
using
  QueryAtom::setQuery() from C++ (or possibly Java), be sure that you are
not
  also deleting that memory.

## Highlights:
- The new R-Group decomposition code provides a flexible and powerful tool
for
  building R-group tables or datasets look in $RDBASE/Docs/Notebooks for
  example notebooks showing how to use this.
- Drawing of chemical reactions has been greatly improved and is now done
using
  the C++ rendering code.
- The MaxMinPicker is dramatically faster.
- New descriptors: the QED descriptor has been added as have a large
collection
  of new 3D descriptors and implementations of the USR and USRCAT
fingerprints.
