    Releasing IPython version 0.10.1.
    
    IPython 0.10.1 was released October 11, 2010, over a year after version 0.10.
    This is mostly a bugfix release, since after version 0.10 was released, the
    development team's energy has been focused on the 0.11 series.  We have
    nonetheless tried to backport what fixes we could into 0.10.1, as it remains
    the stable series that many users have in production systems they rely on.
    
    Since the 0.11 series changes many APIs in backwards-incompatible ways, we are
    willing to continue maintaining the 0.10.x series.  We don't really have time
    to actively write new code for 0.10.x, but we are happy to accept patches and
    pull requests on the IPython `github site`_.  If sufficient contributions are
    made that improve 0.10.1, we will roll them into future releases.  For this
    purpose, we will have a branch called 0.10.2 on github, on which you can base
    your contributions.

    For this release, we applied approximately 60 commits totaling a diff of over
    7000 lines::

    Highlights of this release:
    
    - The only significant new feature is that IPython's parallel computing
      machinery now supports natively the Sun Grid Engine and LSF schedulers.  This
      work was a joint contribution from Justin Riley, Satra Ghosh and Matthieu
      Brucher, who put a lot of work into it.  We also improved traceback handling
      in remote tasks, as well as providing better control for remote task IDs.
    
    - New IPython Sphinx directive.  You can use this directive to mark blocks in
      reSructuredText documents as containig IPython syntax (including figures) and
      the will be executed during the build::
    
      .. ipython::
    
          In [2]: plt.figure()  # ensure a fresh figure
    
          @savefig psimple.png width=4in
          In [3]: plt.plot([1,2,3])
          Out[3]: [<matplotlib.lines.Line2D object at 0x9b74d8c>]
    
    - Various fixes to the standalone ipython-wx application.
    
    - We now ship internally the excellent argparse library, graciously licensed
      under BSD terms by Steven Bethard.  Now (2010) that argparse has become part
      of Python 2.7 this will be less of an issue, but Steven's relicensing allowed
      us to start updating IPython to using argparse well before Python 2.7.  Many
      thanks!
    
    - Robustness improvements so that IPython doesn't crash if the readline library
      is absent (though obviously a lot of functionality that requires readline
      will not be available).
    
    - Improvements to tab completion in Emacs with Python 2.6.
    
    - Logging now supports timestamps (see ``%logstart?`` for full details).
    
    - A long-standing and quite annoying bug where parentheses would be added to
      ``print`` statements, under Python 2.5 and 2.6, was finally fixed.
    
    - Improved handling of libreadline on Apple OSX.
    
    - Fix ``reload`` method of IPython demos, which was broken.
    
    - Fixes for the ipipe/ibrowse system on OSX.
    
    - Fixes for Zope profile.
    
    - Fix %timeit reporting when the time is longer than 1000s.
    
    - Avoid lockups with ? or ?? in SunOS, due to a bug in termios.
    
    - The usual assortment of miscellaneous bug fixes and small improvements.
