any idea when debian is moving to numpy 1.7 in stable?

[jtratner]

There are many many distributions still using 1.6. Heck it's what I have to
use at work too.

@yarikoptic awesome thanks for that!

[jtratner]

We could potentially disallow datetime stuff for < 1.7 before removing
support for 1.6 altogether. But still wouldn't happen for a while for
either.

@yarikoptic when is jessie becoming stable? (e.g. the default)

I don't see a problem with supporting < 1.7 (as we already have numerous warnings, mainly for timedelta type stuff, which is pretty much broken in < 1.7).

just throwing this out there

Jessie unknown yet
Somewhere in 1.5 - 2 years I guess

@jreback , We should go according to latest LTS for debian/ubuntu and fedora/centos. I think it's just too soon.
close?

[jreback]

yep...let's just close
