Dear Pythonistas and solar power enthusiasts,

On behalf of the maintainers, we're happy to announce a new release of
pvlib python:
software for simulating performance of photovoltaic solar energy systems.

*See what's new for v0.8.1:*
* https://pvlib-python.readthedocs.io/en/stable/whatsnew.html

*Releases are available from PyPI and the conda-forge channel:*
* https://pypi.org/project/pvlib/
* https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/pvlib-python

*Read the Documentation:*
* https://pvlib-python.readthedocs.io/en/stable/index.html

*Report issues & contribute:*
* https://github.com/pvlib/pvlib-python

*Highlights:*
* AirSpeed Velocity benchmarks are now available!
https://pvlib-benchmarker.github.io/pvlib-benchmarks/
* A numpy-based implementation of the SPECTRL2 spectral irradiance model
and a usage example in the gallery.
https://pvlib-python.readthedocs.io/en/stable/auto_examples/plot_spectrl2_fig51A.html
* New functions for modeling inverters with multiple MPPTs.
* The Liu-Jordan irradiance function is deprecated, and will be removed in
v0.9. Please use the newer Campbell-Norman function instead, but note it
expects some different arguments.
* Added the option of fetching 5 and 15-minute PSM3 data using a new
"attributes" keyword argument.
* Clear-sky detection now uses centered rolling windows instead of
left-aligned rolling windows.

*The maintainers thank you for using pvlib python!*
