PyCBC Release v1.15.2

This is the v1.15.2 release of PyCBC.

This is a bugfix release over v1.15.1. It incorporates a fix to waveform compression and decompression inadvertently broken during the removal of weave with release v1.15.0

PyCBC Release v1.15.1

This is the v1.15.1 release of PyCBC.

This is a minor increment over v1.15.0. We [try to] resolve a packaging issue that has broken the pip builds of v1.15.0 and we straighten out the numpy dependency to avoid issues on python2.7.

PyCBC Release v1.15.0

This is the v1.15.0 release of PyCBC.

This release marks the removal of the weave package from PyCBC. With the removal of this package (not available in python3) the python3 compatibility of PyCBC is much improved. At the moment the PyCBC inference package is still not expected to work in python3. However, other parts of the code base should now work correctly. Undoubtedly there will be more patching required before this is true everywhere, please let us know of any problems encountered.

PyCBC Release v1.14.4

This is the v1.14.4 release of PyCBC.
