Indeed, we are having a hard time releasing early. Maybe the reason is the massive amount of changes to core behavior in numpy. The situation here is that a usecase that was working up to 1.6 included will stop working in 1.7 with no possible workaround. I am biassed because that usecase is important to me. However, I do find that having a core package that is such a moving target makes it hard to build upon.
