I am back from my vacation so I have time again. I figured since I was leaving and people were making fantastic progress on pull requests and tickets that it was best to wait. But I'm available now to help with the release. >> Most documentation work that seems to remain are Animation module (and I >> would love to find out if there is some way to embed a video using >> sphinx) and the release-related documentation such as "what's new". >> Also, do we plan to now host the documentation and downloads on github, >> or are we still sticking with sourceforge for that? > > ipython has moved to github for their homepage and documentation, but as > far as I can see, github has no facility for hosting downloads; the > ipython tarballs are on scipy.org. No strong opinions here. It probably makes sense to move as much stuff to github as possible now that the issue tracker has been moved, but the sf download stuff is pretty good now and I haven't investigated whether github offers equivalents. Also, our donations are processed through sf and they are non-negligible. I found this old post on github about accepting donations https://github.com/blog/57-getting-paid-the-open-source-way; not sure if this is still current. >> This looks to be a very nice release! > > Question: simply abandon v1.0.x-maint without a release? I would say yes here -- we can leave the branch around for a while in case there is a reason to cut a release from it, but I don't think it makes sense to do a release of the branch otherwise. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ AppSumo Presents a FREE Video for the SourceForge Community by Eric Ries, the creator of the Lean Startup Methodology on "Lean Startup Secrets Revealed."
