I managed to merge the more important doc changes. I have a patch to switch doc building to using Python 3 components, as there's a goal of removing the Python 2 components at some point.

But it probably wont be until tomorrow. diff -Nru pandas-0.20.3/debian/changelog pandas- > 0.20.3/debian/changelog > --- pandas-0.20.3/debian/changelog 2017-07-10 20:00:59.000000000 > -0400 > +++ pandas-0.20.3/debian/changelog 2017-09-21 16:11:29.000000000 > -0400 > @@ -1,3 +1,14 @@ > +pandas (0.20.3-2) unstable; urgency=medium > + > + * debian/control > + - boosted policy to 4.0.0 (I think we should be ok) > + - drop statsmodels from build-depends to altogether avoid the > circular While I was looking at the policy updating checklist in 4.0.1 they renamed XS-Testsuite to Testsuite.
