Dear PDL folks,

PDL 2.080 has just been released. Notable changes since 2.079:


  *   Use of Text::Balanced 2.05, incorporating PDL’s performance patches (2.05 
is in Perl 5.036, which causes problems for PDL <= 2.079)
  *   PDL::IO::STL fixed to work on big-endian systems
  *   pp_add_macros enhanced to parse and pass multiple arguments
  *   most of PDL::VectorValued incorporated – thank you Bryan Jurish!
  *   Fix histogram to not segfault when min == max

Future plans, in something like intended order:

  *   Finish PDL::OpenCV, which may necessitate a couple of tweaks/added 
capabilities in PDL
  *   Restructure the TriD stuff so there is a consistent API between OpenGL 
and X3D/VRML
  *   fix more open GitHub issues
  *   add event-handling hooks for ndarrays
  *   “loop fusion” techniques to maximise locality of computation, minimising 
data’s trips through the “straw” between CPU and main RAM
  *   finish the independent C interface for making PDL usable from e.g. Python
  *   use OpenCL or other means to also utilise GPUs if available

The IRC channel (#pdl on irc.perl.org) is a great virtual place to come and ask 
questions, or just watch the GitHub messages flow by.

As usual, please give the new release a try and report problems.

Best regards,
Ed
