Dear all,

The beta of the 2020.03 RDKit release has been tagged in github:
https://github.com/rdkit/rdkit/releases/tag/Release_2020_03_1b1

I've done conda builds for Python 3.6 and 3.7 for Mac, and Linux and I'm
working on the Windows builds now. These all use the beta label so that
they do not install by default; you'll need to run "conda install" as
follows:

conda install -c rdkit/label/beta rdkit

Be sure to confirm that it's installing the right version when you are
prompted (if there's no build available, it will pick the current
production release instead).

The relevant section of the release notes (which still may need a highlight
or two added) is below, or you can see a nicely formatted version here:
https://github.com/rdkit/rdkit/releases/tag/Release_2020_03_1b1

As usual, if you have time to try out the new release I would love
feedback. If nothing major comes up, I plan to do the actual release next
Monday.

Best,
-greg

# Release_2020.03.1
(Changes relative to Release_2019.09.1)

## Backwards incompatible changes
- Searches for equal molecules (i.e. `mol1 @= mol2`) in the PostgreSQL
cartridge
  now use the `do_chiral_sss` option. So if `do_chiral_sss` is false (the
  default), the molecules `CC(F)Cl` and `C[C@H](F)Cl` will be considered to
be equal.
  Previously these molecules were always considered to be different.
- Attempting to create a MolSupplier from a filename pointing to an empty
file,
  a file that does not exist or sometihing that is not a standard file (i.e.
  something like a directory) now generates an exception.
- The cmake option `RDK_OPTIMIZE_NATIVE` has been renamed to
`RDK_OPTIMIZE_POPCNT`

# Highlights:
- The drawings generated by the MolDraw2D objects are now significantly
improved
  and can include simple atom and bond annotations (#2931 and #3010)
- An initial implementation of a modified scaffold network algorithm is now
  available (#2911)
- A few new descriptor/fingerprint types are available - BCUTs (#2957),
Morse
  atom fingerprints (#1773), Coulomb matrices (#2993), and MHFP and SECFP
  fingerprints (#2643)

## Deprecated code (to be removed in a future release):
- To improve API consistency of the exceptions in RDKit with the default
ones in
  the STL, the several `message()` methods and `Invariant::getMessage()` in
RDKit's
  exceptions are from now on deprecated in favor of `what()`. Both
`message()` and
  `Invariant::getMessage()` will be removed in the next release.
- The old MolHash code should be considered deprecated. This release
introduces
  a more flexible alternative. Specifically the following pieces will be
removed in the next release:
  - The python functionality
`rdkit.Chem.rdMolHash.GenerateMoleculeHashString()`
  - The C++ functionality directly present in the header file
`GraphMol/MolHash/MolHash.h`
