Hello there,

I've just finished tagging and uploading mlpack 2.2.0.  It is a
continuation of the 2.x.x line of releases, so it does not have the
neural network code or the bindings to other languages.  You can
download the release at

  http://www.mlpack.org/files/mlpack-2.2.0.tar.gz

A very non-comprehensive list of big changes is in the HISTORY.md file:

  * Bugfix for mlpack_knn program (#816).

  * Add decision tree implementation in methods/decision_tree/.  This is
    very similar to a C4.5 tree learner.

  * Add DBSCAN implementation in methods/dbscan/.

  * Add support for multidimensional discrete distributions (#810,
    #830).

  * Better output for Log::Debug/Log::Info/Log::Warn/Log::Fatal for
    Armadillo objects (#895, #928).

  * Refactor categorical CSV loading with boost::spirit for faster
    loading (#681).

A much more complete list of changes is here:

  https://github.com/mlpack/mlpack/compare/mlpack-2.1.1...mlpack-2.2.0

But possibly a more comprehensible list is the list of closed issues and
PRs:

  https://github.com/mlpack/mlpack/milestone/18?closed=1

There are lots of new contributors---so thank you everyone for your
contributions!  When I last wrote a release email, Github listed 65
contributors, but today it lists 79.

Like I wrote last time, big changes will come to mlpack 3.0.0, including
bindings to other languages and a neural network infrastructure.  In
addition, there will probably be pieces of the projects from the
upcoming Google Summer of Code.

If you have any problems or would like to contribute your own code, feel
free to get in touch on Github at https://github.com/mlpack/mlpack or on
IRC in #mlpack on freenode or even just send an email to this mailing
list.

Thanks!

Ryan
