Hi All,

On behalf of the NumPy team I am pleased to announce that NumPy 1.17.1 has
been released. This release contains a number of fixes for bugs reported
against NumPy 1.17.0 along with a few documentation and build
improvements.  The Python versions supported are 3.5-3.7, note that Python
2.7 has been dropped.  Python 3.8b3 should work with the released source
packages, but there are no future guarantees.

Downstream developers should use Cython >=3D 0.29.13 for Python 3.8 support
and OpenBLAS >=3D 3.7 to avoid wrong results on the Skylake architecture. T=
he
NumPy wheels on PyPI are built from the OpenBLAS development branch in
order to avoid those problems. Wheels for this release can be downloaded
from PyPI <https://pypi.org/project/numpy/1.17.1/>, source archives and
release notes are available from Github
<https://github.com/numpy/numpy/releases/tag/v1.17.1>.
