- Fixed a recently introduced bug that made Pandas required for the library to work.
0.16.3
--------------------
- Added a new `skip_metadata` parameter to the `DwCAReader` constructor. When set to `True`, the metadata file is not read. This can be useful for example if the metadata is corrupt (invalid XML) and you don't need it.
0.16.2
--------------------
- Fix a packaging issue that prevented the release of v0.16.1 on PyPI.
0.16.1
--------------------
- Added official support for Python 3.12 - Proper error message when trying to use an unsupported combination of Pandas option and archives with default values (issue 106).
0.16.0
--------------------
- Dropped Python 3.5 and 3.6 support. Use Python 3.7 to 3.11 instead. - Added a star record iterator to DwCAReader (thanks to csbrown)
0.15.1
--------------------
- Workaround for errors with buggy GBIF downloads, see https://github.com/gbif/portal-feedback/issues/4533
