[SciPy-User] [ANN] release of Neo 0.2.0

[Samuel Garcia]

Of course.
A global convergence would great! (neo team already plane to propose to 
merge with nitime).

But at the moment it is not so easy:
  nitime = object model + analysis
  nibabel = IO collections for NI
  neo = object model + IO collection for electrophysiology

The main work is that nitime's object model and neo's object model differ.
nitime objects are neutral.
Neo object are colored for the use.For example, neo also add containers 
objects ("one to many" and "many to many" relationship between object)

But doing a conversion script could be very easy (if loosing the 
relationship between objects):
neo.AnalogSignal >>> nittime.TimeSerie
neo.SpikeTrain >>> nittime.TimeArrays
neo.EpochArray >>> list of nitime.Epoch
neo.EventArray >>> list of nitime.Event
neo.Epoch >>> nitime.Epoch
neo.Event >>> nitime.Event
