2=========
3
4Minor Release 2.1.1 []
5
6* speed up of auto_poly_baseline
7* bug fix - numpy masks
8* better TAB completiion (handles quotes, don't list private members)
9
10Release Version 2.1 [2006-09-11]
11
12* Processing of Multibeam MX data
13* Line Catalogs for both plotting and setting rest frequencies
14* median averaging
15* support of circular polarisations
16* binaries for fedora (core 3/5), debian, ubuntu, OSX (ppc,intel)
17* text/arrow/line annonations for plotter
18* export of fit parameters to text file
19* disk based scantables for large data sets
20* re-introduced custom quotients
21* fixed major fitter bug
22* fft flagging
23* full support for MOPS data
24
25Release Version 2.0 [2006-04-28]
26
27* Major rework of internal data representation. Now supports IFs with
28  different number of spectral channels. This has minimal effect on the
29  user interface.
30* Creation of a "selector" object used for data selection. Allow slicing of
31  data in beam, IF, polarisation as well as selection via header values
32  (e.g. Tsys). set_cursor is now invalid use set_selection instead.
33* Scantables can be merged
34* scantable.lines() has been removed. Set rest frequencies by value
35  (This will change in 2.1)
36* Multiple data files (e.g. rpf) can be read into a single scantable
37* Polarmetric infrastructure improved to support most observing styles
38  (linear feeds only)
39* ability to convert to/store as Stokes
40* Plotter can now only plot from a single scantable (use merge if necessary)
41* ASCII (text) spectral output changed to be more usable
42* Can change the source position coordinate frame
43* Bug fixes
44* auto_quotient is doing "closest in time reference"
45* option auto-align in velocity when using average_time
46* flagging on a per channel base
47
48
49(Release 1.2.2)
50
51* channel based flagging
52* Added get_elevation, azimuth and parangle
53* Added swap_lineas & invert_phase
54* added allaxes arg to poly_baseline
55* Request: added pager throuput for history and summary
56* Request: Log meesage on auto_quotient()
57* Bug Fix: plotter -set_mode("s","i").
58* Bug fix: plotter -autoscale abcissa limits from all spectra for stacking.
59
60Release Version 1.2.1 [2005-12-06]
61
62* scantable.recalc_azel - recalcualte azimuth and elevation based on
63* pointing Bug fix: plotter - set_layout got overwritten byt plot; row
64  cursor not honoured in _plot_time
65
66
67Release Version 1.2 [2005-11-30]
68
69Code changes
70------------
71* frequency switching: scantable.freq_switch()
72* get a list of sourcenames: scantable.get_sourcename()
73* build quotients from matched _S/_R pairs or 1*_R/n*_S automatically
74* plotting control: plotter.set_colors(), plotter.set_linestyles(),
75  plotter.set_linewidth() all also  via .asaprc parameters
76* non-interactive (non-GUI) plotting
77* ASAP Online (Mopra) Monitor web interface (mini pipeline)
78* user control of multi-panel: plotter.set_layout()
79* histogram plotting: part of linestyles
80* plugins: via ~/.asap/userfuncs.py
81* plotter panel control: rcParams['plotter.ganged']
82* usability: reworked the whole asap startup scripts, now all user adjustable
83  through ~/.asap/
84
85Todos/pending
86--------------
87* documentation update: should be finished by 2005-11-25
88* cookbook
89* release 1.2:  2005-11-30
90
91Major non-targets, resulting from requirements/targets
92-----------------------------------------------------
93* asap logging, which can be turned on and off through .asaprc/rcParams
94 (from asapmon)
95* Data container v2 design study and document ( moved from cycle II )
96
97Not Addressed
98-------------
99
100(deferred to cycle II, as described in support document)
101
102* Flexible data selection
103* "Merging of spectra" (concatenating scantables)
104
105* public defect tracking system
