Hi SymPy users and contributors, It is my pleasure to announce the *beta release* of SymPy 1.5. This is is intended for advance testing rather than production use.
I have just made version 1.5b1 available to install as a pre-release from PyPI. You can install this with $ pip install --pre sympy This will not be a long-lasting beta phase. The final release of 1.5 is expected in a few weeks. I hope that making a beta release available via pip will encourage as many people as possible to try this out and report any regressions before the final release. The release notes for SymPy 1.5 can be found here: https://github.com/sympy/sympy/wiki/Release-Notes-for-1.5 Note that there are some features that are deprecated and also some changes that are not backwards compatible. We try to ensure backwards compatibility and to use a deprecation process wherever possible. However it is not always possible to avoid potentially breaking changes. Note also that SymPy 1.5 drops support for Python 3.4 and most importantly will be the last release of SymPy that supports Python 2.7. This makes it especially important to try and avoid regressions in this release so I hope that it gets as much pre-release testing as possible. Issues with the release should be reported on Github (make sure to specify if the issue is a regression since 1.4): https://github.com/sympy/sympy/issues The SHA256 hashes for the release files are: ce87ab3ffe55ba1954fafdfa53980b247aa7390bb9bde169a4163a696873c368 sympy-1.5b1-py2.py3-none-any.whl 62fa5cd81d4afc62535657b1edf2132d08806c677a4e787c8f0f095d49d848ff sympy-1.5b1.tar.gz Happy testing, Oscar -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sympy" group.
