=====
- Enforced the use of Astropy Quantities through out most of SunPy.
- Dropped Support for Python 2.6.
- Remove old style string formatting and other 2.6 compatibility lines.
- Added vso like querying feature to JSOC Client.
- Refactor the JSOC client so that it follows the .query() .get()
interface of VSOClient and UnifedDownloader.
- Provide ``__str__`` and ``__repr__`` methods on vso ``QueryResponse``
deprecate ``.show()``.
- Downloaded files now keep file extensions rather than replacing all
periods with underscores.
- Update to TimeRange API, removed t1 and t0, start and end are now
read-only attributes.
- Added ability to download level3 data for lyra Light Curve along with
corresponding tests.
- Added support for gzipped FITS files.
- Add STEREO HI Map subclass and color maps.
- Map.rotate() no longer crops any image data.
- For accuracy, default Map.rotate() transformation is set to
bi-quartic.
- ``sunpy.image.transform.affine_transform`` now casts integer data to
float64 and sets NaN values to 0 for all transformations except
scikit-image rotation with order <- 3.
- CD matrix now updated, if present, when Map pixel size is changed.
- Removed now-redundant method for rotating IRIS maps since the
functionality exists in Map.rotate()
- Provide ``__str__`` and ``__repr__`` methods on vso ``QueryResponse``
deprecate ``.show()``
- SunPy colormaps are now registered with matplotlib on import of
``sunpy.cm``
- ``sunpy.cm.get_cmap`` no longer defaults to 'sdoaia94'
- Added database url config setting to be setup by default as a sqlite
database in the sunpy working directory
- Added a few tests for the sunpy.roi module
- Added capability for figure-based tests
- Removed now-redundant method for rotating IRIS maps since the
functionality exists in Map.rotate().
- SunPy colormaps are now registered with matplotlib on import of
``sunpy.cm``.
- ``sunpy.cm.get_cmap`` no longer defaults to 'sdoaia94'.
- Added database url config setting to be setup by default as a sqlite
database in the sunpy working directory.
- Added a few tests for the sunpy.roi module.
- Refactored mapcube co-alignment functionality.
- Removed sample data from distribution and added ability to download
sample files
- Changed start of GOES 2 operational time range back to 1980-01-04 so
data from 1980 can be read into GOESLightCurve object
- Require JSOC request data calls have an email address attached.
- Calculation of the solar rotation of a point on the Sun as seen from
Earth, and its application to the de-rotation of mapcubes.
- Downloaded files now keep file extensions rather than replacing all
periods with underscores
- Fixed the downloading of files with duplicate names in sunpy.database
- Removed sample data from distribution and added ability to download
sample files.
- Added the calculation of the solar rotation of a point on the Sun as
seen from Earth, and its application to the de-rotation of mapcubes.
- Changed default for GOESLightCurve.create() so that it gets the data
from the most recent existing GOES fits file.
- Map plot functionality now uses the mask property if it is present,
allowing the plotting of masked map data
- Map Expects Quantities and returns quantities for most parameters.
- Map now used Astropy.wcs for world <-> pixel conversions.
- map.world\_to\_pixel now has a similar API to map.pixel\_to\_world.
- map.shape has been replaced with map.dimensions, which is ordered x
first.
- map.rsun\_arcseconds is now map.rsun\_obs as it returns a quantity.
- Map properties are now named tuples rather than dictionaries.
- Improvement for Map plots, standardization and improved color tables,
better access to plot variables through new plot\_settings variable.
- Huge improvements in Instrument Map doc strings. Now contain
instrument descriptions as well as reference links for more info.
- net.jsoc can query data series with time sampling by a Sample
attribute implemented in vso.
- MapCube.plot and MapCube.peek now support a user defined
plot\_function argument for customising the animation.
- Added new sample data file, an AIA cutout file.
- Moved documentation build directory to doc/build
