I am happy to announce the release of Bokeh version 0.4.4!

Bokeh is a Python library for visualizing large and realtime datasets on the 
web. Its goal is to provide elegant, concise construction of novel graphics in 
the style of Protovis/D3, while delivering high-performance interactivity to 
thin clients. Bokeh includes its own Javascript library (BokehJS) that 
implements a reactive scenegraph representation of the plot, and renders 
efficiently to HTML5 Canvas. Bokeh works well with IPython Notebook, but can 
generate standalone graphics that embed into regular HTML. If you are a 
Matplotlib user, you can just use %bokeh magic to start interacting with your 
plots in the notebook immediately!

Check out the full documentation, interactive gallery, and tutorial at

        http://bokeh.pydata.org

If you are using Anaconda, you can install with conda:

        conda install bokeh

Alternatively, you can install with pip:

        pip install bokeh

We are still working on some bigger features but want to get new fixes and 
functionality out to users as soon as we can. Some notable features of this 
release are:

        * Additional Matplotlib, ggplot, and Seaborn compatibility (styling, 
more examples)
        * TravisCI testing integration at 
https://travis-ci.org/ContinuumIO/bokeh
        * Tool enhancements, constrained pan/zoom, more hover glyphs 
        * Server remote data and downsampling examples 
        * Initial work for Bokeh "app" concept 

Also, we've also made lots of little bug fixes and enhancements - see the 
CHANGELOG for full details.

BokehJS is also available by CDN for use in standalone javascript applications:

        http://cdn.pydata.org/bokeh-0.4.4.js
        http://cdn.pydata.org/bokeh-0.4.4.css
        http://cdn.pydata.org/bokeh-0.4.4.min.js
        http://cdn.pydata.org/bokeh-0.4.4.min.css

Some examples of BokehJS use can be found on the Bokeh JSFiddle page:

The release of Bokeh 0.5 is planned for early May. Some notable features we 
plan to include are:

        * Abstract Rendering for semantically meaningful downsampling of large 
datasets
        * Better grid-based layout system, using Cassowary.js
        * More MPL/Seaborn/ggplot.py compatibility and examples, using 
MPLExporter
        * Additional tools, improved interactions, and better plot frame
        * Touch support

Issues, enhancement requests, and pull requests can be made on the Bokeh Github 
page: https://github.com/continuumio/bokeh

Questions can be directed to the Bokeh mailing list: bo...@continuum.io
