rel-0.10.1: Releasing IPython version 0.10.1.

2010-10-12T06:35:21Z

Releasing IPython version 0.10.1.

IPython 0.10.1 was released October 11, 2010, over a year after version 0.10.
This is mostly a bugfix release, since after version 0.10 was released, the
development team's energy has been focused on the 0.11 series. We have
nonetheless tried to backport what fixes we could into 0.10.1, as it remains
the stable series that many users have in production systems they rely on.

Since the 0.11 series changes many APIs in backwards-incompatible ways, we are
willing to continue maintaining the 0.10.x series. We don't really have time
to actively write new code for 0.10.x, but we are happy to accept patches and
pull requests on the IPython `github site`_. If sufficient contributions are
made that improve 0.10.1, we will roll them into future releases. For this
purpose, we will have a branch called 0.10.2 on github, on which you can base
your contributions.

For this release, we applied approximately 60 commits totaling a diff of over
7000 lines::

Highlights of this release:

- The only significant new feature is that IPython's parallel computing
machinery now supports natively the Sun Grid Engine and LSF schedulers. This
work was a joint contribution from Justin Riley, Satra Ghosh and Matthieu
Brucher, who put a lot of work into it. We also improved traceback handling
in remote tasks, as well as providing better control for remote task IDs.

- New IPython Sphinx directive. You can use this directive to mark blocks in
reSructuredText documents as containig IPython syntax (including figures) and
the will be executed during the build::

.. ipython::

In [2]: plt.figure() # ensure a fresh figure

@savefig psimple.png width=4in
In [3]: plt.plot([1,2,3])
Out[3]: [<matplotlib.lines.Line2D object at 0x9b74d8c>]

- Various fixes to the standalone ipython-wx application.

- We now ship internally the excellent argparse library, graciously licensed
under BSD terms by Steven Bethard. Now (2010) that argparse has become part
of Python 2.7 this will be less of an issue, but Steven's relicensing allowed
us to start updating IPython to using argparse well before Python 2.7. Many
thanks!

- Robustness improvements so that IPython doesn't crash if the readline library
is absent (though obviously a lot of functionality that requires readline
will not be available).

- Improvements to tab completion in Emacs with Python 2.6.

- Logging now supports timestamps (see ``%logstart?`` for full details).

- A long-standing and quite annoying bug where parentheses would be added to
``print`` statements, under Python 2.5 and 2.6, was finally fixed.

- Improved handling of libreadline on Apple OSX.

- Fix ``reload`` method of IPython demos, which was broken.

- Fixes for the ipipe/ibrowse system on OSX.

- Fixes for Zope profile.

- Fix %timeit reporting when the time is longer than 1000s.

- Avoid lockups with ? or ?? in SunOS, due to a bug in termios.

- The usual assortment of miscellaneous bug fixes and small improvements.

Opening trunk for 0.11 and development.

The 0.10 series now will hold any fixes for that series. The trunk is open
for the refactoring work that will become 0.11.
