Hi all, I'm happy to announce pandas 0.21.1 has been released.
This is a minor bug-fix release in the 0.21.x series and includes some small regression fixes, bug fixes and performance improvements. We recommend that all users upgrade to this version. Highlights include: - Temporarily restore matplotlib datetime plotting functionality. This should resolve issues for users who relied implicitly on pandas to plot datetimes with matplotlib. See here <https://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/version/0.21.1/whatsnew.html#restore-matplotlib-datetime-converter-registration> . - Improvements to the Parquet IO functions introduced in 0.21.0. See here <http://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/version/0.21.1/whatsnew.html#whatsnew-0211-enhancements-parquet> . See the v0.21.1 Whatsnew <http://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/version/0.21.1/whatsnew.html#whatsnew-0211> overview for an extensive list of all the changes for 0.21.1. - Tom *What is it:* pandas is a Python package providing fast, flexible, and expressive data structures designed to make working with “relational” or “labeled” data both easy and intuitive. It aims to be the fundamental high-level building block for doing practical, real world data analysis in Python. Additionally, it has the broader goal of becoming the most powerful and flexible open source data analysis / manipulation tool available in any language. *How to get it:* Source tarballs and windows/mac/linux wheels are available on PyPI (thanks to Christoph Gohlke for the windows wheels, and to Matthew Brett for setting up the mac/linux wheels). Conda packages currently building for conda forge, and already available on the default channel. *Issues:* Please report any issues on our issue tracker: https://github.com/py data/pandas/issues *Thanks to all the contributors:* A total of 46 people contributed to this release.
