build1 (January 17, 2021: Python-3.9 only: Pytorch official, Wasmer, Jupyterlab-3 with most plugins, build Cleanup)

• pyarrow-3.0 official for python-3.9
• node-v14.15.4

• torchaudio
• NO: nbdime-3.0.0b1 is nice but asks Jupyterlab to rebuild... not nice yet
• PySide6 compatibility (vendoring and tweaking an alpha patched QtPy, hoping to reach pyzo, QtConsole, PyQtGraph compat)

build2 (January 31, 2021)

• Infrastructure: allows alls icons (but pyzo & vscode) to open on the directory of the Drag&Drop file
• python-3.10.0a5 (pattern matching in a6 , sqlite-3.35 in a7)
• jupyterlab-3.0.7 (small tweaks in Windows expected)

• all "jupyter nbextension enable" shall go away ... when we drop 'legacy' jupyter mode
• last minute cancel and redo...: the normal launcher case was no more working

build3 (February 14th, 2021)

• python-3.9.2rc (delayed by https://bugs.python.org/issue42967 and https://bugs.python.org/issue42988)
• python-3.8.8rc (delayed by https://bugs.python.org/issue42967 and https://bugs.python.org/issue42988)

• python-3.8.8 (advanced)
• scipy-1.6.1
• great_expectations
• NO TO dagster, dbt, prefect, meltano, as they drag too much outdated dependancies

build4 (February 20th, 2021 , last build before rc)

• spyder-4.2.2,
• pyqtgraph-0.11.1dev0-20210221,
• python-3.10.0a6 (pattern matching)
• numba updates before release
• onnx for Python-3.9
• holoviews fix for bokeh
• torch-1.8
• re-spinning with upgraded numpy-1.20.1, because:
  • binary wheels used are needing it in stupid QtConsole ok test "from pandas import Da<tab>"
  • WinPython uses cgohlke wheels whenever possible because historic "super-complexity" to get inter-compatible wheels,
  • this hyper-complexity is lowered per each base numpy progress, so in face of choice, upgrading numpy will always be the choice,
  • nirvana is reached when numpy eco-system works on cpython and pypy, on Windows 64 (Python-3.11 ?)
  • recompiling great-expectations as a consequence
• re-spinning (rc2) with "jupyter-notebook" icon pointing to "jupyter-classic", because:
  • the first doesn't want to start anymore, and support is going down,
  • the newer works essentially well,
  • it will simplify further maintenance, no time to spend maintaining what's now drowning and dragging the ecosystem

rc (March 7th , 2021)

moved to next cycle:

• jupyter_bokeh, moved to next cycle
• nbdime-3.0.0rc, jupyterlab-git
• ipygany (not found its public yet on pypi) and vtk galaxy ?
• skl2onnx not on python-3..9
• napari / vispy ?
• aiomultiprocess ?? (maybe python-3.10 fixes it another way)
• is nbtutor of interest ?

WinPython 2021-01 b3 (2021-02-1x: Jupyterlab-3.0.7, PySide6 compatibility)

Changes from WinPython 2021-01 b2:

• Infrastructure:
  • Jupyterlab-3.0.7, Nodejs-14.15.5, vscode-1.53.2
  • small cleanups of build process,
  • icons (but pyzo & vscode) switch to the working directory of the Drag&Droped file (attempt 1, may not be perfect)
• New Packages:
• Upgraded Packages:
  • numba-0.53rc official compatibility for Python-3.9
• variation per version:
  • Pytorch in standard branch only,
  • portable VSCode in "cod" branch only. (but you can copy the "\t\cod" directory from one to the other)

Areas of particular interest for testers:

• Jupyterlab-3.0.7,
• improved behavior of icon launchers to Drag & Drop (attempt 1, may not be ideal, yet better)
• due to sourceforge slowness, build binaries are also on https://github.com/winpython/winpython/releases/tag/3.4.20210213

Next build effort:

• get last missing Python-3.9 official packages: onnxruntime, ...
• improve Jupyterlab-3:
  • missing plugins: jupyter-bokeh, nbdime
• new Python 3.8 & 3.9 releases candidates (15 days late ?)

interlude: Winpython-3.10a5msvc (2021-02-21)

Thanks to Christoph Gohlke invaluable expertise, we can respin the Python-3.10a5 with msvc_runtime wheel

interlude: Winpython-3.10a6 (2021-03-07 am)

wheels before switching the "notebook" icon to Jupyter-nbclasssic

WinPython 2021-01 rc2 (2021-03-07: Jupyterlab-3.0.9, python-3.9 is feature-complete, jupyter-nbclassic replaces jupyter-notebook)

Changes from WinPython 2021-01 b4:

• Infrastructure:
  • Jupyterlab-3.0.9,
  • replacing Jupyter-notebook per Jupyter-nbclassic (icon name unchanged, but jupyterlab plumbing below)
  • Python-3.9 is now feature-complete, so becomes the default download suggestion
• New Packages:
  • onnxruntime for Python-3.9
• Upgraded Packages:
  • Jupyterlab-3.0.9, Spyder-4.2.3, pandas-1.2.3, pytorch-1.8.0, holoviews-1.14.2, hvplot-0.7.1, panel-0.11.0
  • numpy-1.20.1
• variation per version:
  • Pytorch in standard branch only,
  • portable VSCode in "cod" branch only. (but you can copy the "\t\cod" directory from one to the other)

Areas of particular interest for testers:

• stable, no big failure
• last updates: onnxruntime, numba, spyder, pyqtgraph
• last day switches to numpy-1.20.1 and Jupyter-nbclassic

Hi all,

The 2021-03-10 WinPython 2021-01 is equal to rc2 binaries.

Which TensorFlow version works with this release?
If needed I will use the 3.8.xxx channel.

I need Keras to teach in my class.

You must take a version that has numpy-1.19, so the December 28th 2020 release, if Winpython, Python-3.8.
It shall be similar for Anaconda
