+NumPy 1.16.6 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+The NumPy 1.16.6 release fixes bugs reported against the 1.16.5 release, and
+also backports several enhancements from master that seem appropriate for a
+release series that is the last to support Python 2.7. The wheels on PyPI are
+linked with OpenBLAS v0.3.7, which should fix errors on Skylake series
+cpus.
+
+Downstream developers building this release should use Cython >= 0.29.2 and, if
+using OpenBLAS, OpenBLAS >= v0.3.7. The supported Python versions are 2.7 and
+3.5-3.7.
+
+Highlights
+==========
+
+- The ``np.testing.utils`` functions have been updated from 1.19.0-dev0.
+  This improves the function documentation and error messages as well
+  extending the ``assert_array_compare`` function to additional types.
+
+
+New functions
+=============
+
+Allow matmul (`@` operator) to work with object arrays.
+-------------------------------------------------------
+This is an enhancement that was added in NumPy 1.17 and seems reasonable to
+include in the LTS 1.16 release series.
+
+
+Compatibility notes
+===================
+
+Fix regression in matmul (`@` operator) for boolean types
+---------------------------------------------------------
+Booleans were being treated as integers rather than booleans,
+which was a regression from previous behavior.
+
+
+Improvements
+============
+
+Array comparison assertions include maximum differences
+-------------------------------------------------------
+Error messages from array comparison tests such as ``testing.assert_allclose``
+now include "max absolute difference" and "max relative difference," in
+addition to the previous "mismatch" percentage.  This information makes it
+easier to update absolute and relative error tolerances.

+NumPy 1.17.5 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+This release contains fixes for bugs reported against NumPy 1.17.4 along with
+some build improvements. The Python versions supported in this release
+are 3.5-3.8.
+
+Downstream developers should use Cython >= 0.29.14 for Python 3.8 support and
+OpenBLAS >= 3.7 to avoid errors on the Skylake architecture.
+
+It is recommended that developers interested in the new random bit generators
+upgrade to the NumPy 1.18.x series, as it has updated documentation and
+many small improvements.

+NumPy 1.18.1 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+This release contains fixes for bugs reported against NumPy 1.18.0.  Two bugs
+in particular that caused widespread problems downstream were:
+
+- The cython random extension test was not using a temporary directory for
+  building, resulting in a permission violation. Fixed.
+
+- Numpy distutils was appending `-std=c99` to all C compiler runs, leading to
+  changed behavior and compile problems downstream. That flag is now only
+  applied when building numpy C code.
+
+The Python versions supported in this release are 3.5-3.8. Downstream
+developers should use Cython >= 0.29.14 for Python 3.8 support and OpenBLAS >=
+3.7 to avoid errors on the Skylake architecture.
