Hi everyone.

I have released SymPy 0.7.1.

You can download the source at
http://code.google.com/p/sympy/downloads/detail?name=sympy-0.7.1.tar.gz,
a Windows installer at
http://code.google.com/p/sympy/downloads/detail?name=sympy-0.7.1.win32.exe,
and the html documentation at
http://code.google.com/p/sympy/downloads/detail?name=sympy-0.7.1-docs-html.zip.

The primary motivation for this release was to fix isympy to work with
the new IPython 0.11, which is planned to be released in the next few
days sometime.  But there have also been several other improvements in
this release.  Other improvements include (among other things):

- Python 2.4 is no longer supported.

- The Pyglet plotting library is now an optional external dependency.
Previously, we shipped a version of Pyglet with SymPy.  Pyglet is only
required for plotting, and the rest of SymPy will work just fine
without it.

- Hypergeometric functions and Meijer G-Functions, including an
algorithm to convert these into more familiar named elementary or
special functions.  This is the first part of Tom Bachmann's GSoC
project, which is to use this algorithm as part of a powerful
technique for computing symbolic definite integrals.

- Many improvements to the sets module, including support for
FiniteSets and Cartesian products.  This is part of Matthew Rocklin's
GSoC project on symbolic statistics.

- Our docs now use MathJax to render LaTeX math.  Please let us know
if this causes any problems for you.

- Many algorithms were added to the iterables module as part of
Saptarshi Mandal's GSoC project on combinatorics.

- The framework for working with xyz spin bases in the quantum module
has been improved, as part of Sean Vig's GSoC project.

There are also many other changes.  Please see the full release notes
at https://github.com/sympy/sympy/wiki/Release-Notes-for-0.7.1 for a
more complete list, and for more details on the above.

Note: I haven't updated any of the websites yet.  Please give me a day
to do this, and if you notice any discrepancies then, let me know.
