[SciPy-User] [ANN] scikits.sparse v0.2 released

[Nathaniel Smith]

Hi all,

I've just released v0.2 of scikits.sparse, the scipy.sparse-compatible
CHOLMOD wrapper.

I no longer use this package and don't have time to maintain it, so if
anyone is interested in taking it over please get in touch.

Highlights of this release:

* Factor solve methods now return 1d output for 1d input (just like
np.dot does).
* Factor.solve_P() and Factor.solve_P() deprecated; use
Factor.apply_P() and Factor.apply_Pt() instead.
* New methods for computing determinants of positive-definite
matrices: Factor.det(), Factor.logdet(), Factor.slogdet().
* New method for explicitly computing inverse of a positive-definite
matrix: Factor.inv().
Factor.D() has much better implementation.
* Build system improvements.
* Wrapper code re-licensed under BSD terms.
