[Numpy-discussion] status for 1.6.0

[Ralf Gommers]

Hi,

The list of open issues for 1.6.0 is down to a handful:

- f2py segfault on Ubuntu reported by David (David, did you get any
further with this?)
- #1801: test_noncentral_f failure on win64
- #1798: type promotion regression (needs review,
https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/73)
- API docs for new parameters to ufuncs (full list: 'casting', 'out',
'order', 'subok', 'dtype'),
- API docs, some docstrings and update of NEP for datetime

I'm planning to release the first release candidate next weekend if
these are solved.  As far as I know no one is working on the doc
issues right now. It would be great if someone could step up and do
this.

Thanks,
Ralf
