 Hi,
 
 I'm pleased to announce the availability of the first release candidate
 of NumPy 1.6.2.  This is a maintenance release. Due to the delay of the
 NumPy 1.7.0, this release contains far more fixes than a regular NumPy
 bugfix release.  It also includes a number of documentation and build
 improvements.
 
 Sources and binary installers can be found at
 https://sourceforge.net/projects/numpy/files/NumPy/1.6.2rc1/
 
 Please test this release and report any issues on the numpy-discussion
 mailing list.
 
 Cheers,
 Ralf

1.6.2RC1 builds fine under the following configurations (all of them
x86_64):

* Ubuntu Lucid 10.4 / Python 2.6.5 / GCC 4.4.3: OK (KNOWNFAIL=3, SKIP=5)
* Archlinux (as of today) / Python 3.2.3 / GCC 4.7.0: OK (KNOWNFAIL=5,
SKIP=5)
* Archlinux (as of today) / Python 2.7.3 / GCC: OK (KNOWNFAIL=3, SKIP=5)

Great work!

Andreas.
