Well done, everyone! The size of this release - and the group of people that contributed to it - is even a bit overwhelming. Thanks for managing the release, Andy... and writing it up as a book!
Thank you for your incredible dedication!


We've got a lot in the works already for 0.19.

There are a number of things that have been a long time coming and which I'd really like to see happen, such as:

* multiple metrics for cross validation (#7388 et al.)
* documenting and officially making (most) utils public (#6616)
* indicator features for Imputer, done right (#6556)
* KNN imputation (#2989, #4844)
* ColumnTransformer or similar for heterogeneous data (#2034, #886)
* dataset resampling (#1454)
* string handling in OneHotEncoder (#7327)
* interpolation in average_precision_score (#7356)
* tree categorical splits (#4899)
* k-best feature selection from a model's feature_importances_ (#6717)
* ? feature name transformation (#6425)
* ? sample_weight support in CV scoring (#1179, #2879, #3524, #1574; perhaps this isn't as easy as it looks)

There are things that are important but will probably require more work:

* making common tests and their exceptions more general (perhaps by way of "estimator tags")
* improving our LSH offerings and integration

It's good to see that you're excited about the same things as me.

I also want to do the numpy-doc update, as it gives SOOO much better error messages now.

I'll try to put some time into the public utils soon, and I think the interpolation in average precision is basically done! I think many of the other things you mentioned are already well on their way, and maybe we can get 0.19 out within the next 4 month,
to get back on a more regular schedule.
