Draft for v0.1 announcement email #32

Closed cdeil closed 7 years ago

cdeil commented 7 years ago

I think in ~ a week we'll be ready for v0.1 with the hips package, i.e. have a first version of the make_sky_image high-level function working (see #30).

To prepare the release, I've written up a draft of the release announcements, to be sent to the astropy-dev mailing list (and which you can forward elsewhere if you think it's useful).

@tboch @adl1995 - Could you please read it over? You can either suggest changes via comments, or edit directly to propose some change.

@tboch - Do we need to state "this is not an officially maintained CDS package" or more explicitly acknowledge that CDS supported this by giving your time somehow? Or is it OK as-is?

@cdeil - This looks good to me. I was going to suggest enclosing healpy within '`' to highlight the package name, but I realize that this is going to be an email, so it won't matter. Thanks.

I've updated the announcment, changing the statement on Jupyter widget as discussed in the telcon on Wednesday. Merging this now. Of course, further edits / comments are still welcome.

@tboch - Do you think we could release v0.1 when #30 is merged? I think maybe we should work on it for another week and do some testing ourselves. If you have specific issues / things you'd like to have fixed or implemented or changed before the v0.1 release, please comment on issues or file new ones and put the v0.1 milestone.

PS: I've set the date for HiPS v0.1 release to July 10 and marked this is my calendar: https://github.com/hipspy/hips/milestone/1 So we have a little more than a week to improve code / tests / docs.

@cdeil - yes indeed, I'd like to have a few days to be able to test by myself the v0.1 release candidate
