release date: 2019-03-05

Expected:

• Pytorch-1.0.1
• pandas-0.24.1,
• PyQt5-5.12.1a
• Tensorflow-1.13.1 , for Python-3.7 also

Focus of the release:

• Pyside2-5.12 compatibility of most Qt packages (except Spyder),
• a bayesian nice solution, (tensorflow-probability for now)
• tweak infrastructure:
  • Nodejs on ./n hierarchy level instead of ./t/n,
  • uses a 32/64 in install path, for future 7zip installer-made releases,
  • ensure installer build can be INNO, NSIS, or 7-Zip (allowing up to .7z releases in future)
  • remove support of dead ".exe" Python packages
  • cleanup and expose run_complements.bat
• relook at pep-0397

non-focus: (next)

• Jupyterlab-1 / Tensorflow-2 look a Q2 2019 thing.
• that asyncio trend : asyncpg, falcon / responder, ...

remark:

• experimental python-3.7.2 is becoming available From Microsoft via the Microsoft Store of the Windows 10 1809 release (of this winter, pointing to january).
• Windows 10 1809 update of 1901 was still a pain in the USB.
