NetCDF4 - Enabled support for DAP and HDF4.

ITK - updated to v4.4.0, Enabled: VTKGlue.

VTK - updated to 5.10.1, Enabled: TextAnalysis, QVTK, WrapSIP, Oggrtheora,.

HDF5 cannot be compiled to be thread safe on it.

WindowsXP is no longer officially supported.

Image manipulation was greatly improved with the addition of FreeImage python wrappers and replacing PIL with pillow.

base_python plugin created to host numerous infrastructure, python3 compatibility and utility packages (six, decorator, curses, pep8 etc).

These are part of their respective python wrappers or grouped under base_libraries.

Eliminated most duplicate dependencies between packages - HDF5, zlib, bzip2, libpng, jpeg, tiff etc.

A dozen new plugins were added - mahotas, cffi, lxml, paramiko, Babel, PycURL and others.

It's EOL is getting closed (April 2014) and the resources to support it are not available. Please note that WindowsXP is no longer tested or officially supported.

Python 3.x compatibility helpers were added to the python_base plugin - enum34, faulthandler and mock.

This plugin comes packed with many additional plugins (pep8, cov, flakes etc).

pytest - A mature full-featured alternative to nose.

pygame - A set of python modules designed for writing games.

enaml - A Declarative DSL for building rich user interfaces in Python.

fabric - A simple, pythonic remote execution and deployment tool.

Several new and interesting plugins were introduced:

NetCDF4 was rebuilt and now includes support OpenDAP and HDF4.

PyZMQ was updated to 14.0.1 and built with PGM and ZMQ_CURVE security support.

Astropy - an astronomy oriented plugin was added.

GDAL was updated to the latest version and uses the up to date system libraries.

All packages updated to their latest versions.

Off course the scientific and system aspects were not neglected:

Providing all optional dependencies of the core plugins.

Eliminate usage of any Microsoft Runtime but msvcrt90 and any instabilities caused by it.

Eliminate all duplicate versions of libraries (JPEG, PNG, HDF5 etc).

I'm happy to announce that Python(x, y) 2.7.5.2 is available for immediate download.

grin - Utility which searches directories of source code better than grep or find.cvxpy- A domain-specific language for modeling convex optimization problems in Python.

Numpy has been held back at 1.8.2 to avoidР’В potentialР’В compatibility issues.

User Local install support has been revived - it is still experimental though.

All packages updated to their latest versions (at the time) - IPython, GDAL, SciPy, ITK, VTK.

Also all backports have been updated and expanded with unittest2.

Maintaining 2/3 code base is much easier with the inclusion of python-modernize.

Which adds split views and many other improvements.

Console2 has been replaced with ConsoleZ - an actively developed fork.

MinGW is still available as an additional plugin.

Finally everyone can enjoy native python binary extenions for win32. The official Visual C++ for python 2.7 has replaced MinGW as the bundled compiler.

Work on the 64 bit & 3.x versions progresses slowly but surely.
