Final release is planned for the weekend of 19/20 Feb. Feature freeze for Natty is February 24th, so if the timing is *just right* it may be possible. Ideally, we'd get 0.9.0 into Debian right after scipy 0.9.0 is released, and then sync it to Ubuntu. I don't have permission to upload to Debian, so we'd have to coordinate that between upstream (you guys), Debian Python Modules Team <python-modules-t...@lists.alioth.debian.org>, and Ubuntu. If you remind me, I'll will try to facilitate that. One question though: is 0.9.0 API and backward compatible with 0.8.0? I see we have a couple of dozen reverse dependencies on python-scipy, so if there's any chance that 0.9.0 would break those dependencies, we may have to push that off until Natty+1. Here are a list of the reverse dependencies in Natty: spyder shogun-python-modular science-statistics science-numericalcomputation science-nanoscale-physics pytrainer python-symeig python-scitools python-scipy-dbg python-scikits-learn python-openopt python-nipype python-nipy python-nibabel python-networkx python-mvpa python-mdp python-matplotlib python-gastables psychopy model-builder mayavi2 gvb gnuradio-utils I can probably run a test build in a PPA for these packages, but the timing will be tight.
