To be a bit more detailed here, these are the most significant pull requests / patches that I think can be merged with a limited amount of work: meshgrid enhancements: http://projects.scipy.org/numpy/ticket/966 sample_from function: https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/151 loadtable function: https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/143 Other maintenance things: - un-deprecate putmask - clean up causes of "DType strings 'O4' and 'O8' are deprecated..." - fix failing einsum and polyfit tests - update release notes Cheers, Ralf What do you all think? > > Cheers, > Ralf >
