Re: New In WHeezy
indeed... finally I have gone throught my qa page and extended
"scientific" section a bit:
FOSS solutions for various fields of science got vastly improved coverage
* Neuroscience
* Modeling and electrophysiology: brian, pynn, klustakwik, sigviewer, stimfit
* Data I/O: biosig4c++, nibabel, libgdf, neo
* Hardware interfaces: libfreenect, pyoptical, pyxid
* Brain imaging: cmtk, dipy, mricron, nitime, openwalnut, pysurfer
* Psychophysics: psychtoolbox-3
* ''ADD YOUR FIELD''
with new software addressing miscelaneous computing demands
* Distributed computing
* cctools, condor, dmtcp, mpi4py
* General numeric computing
* numexpr, pandas, skimage, statsmodels, xppaut (maintained again)
* IPython 0.13 with notebook support
* Other helpful tools: CDE (cdepack), numdiff
although not an explicit release goal -- many of the above packages enabled
exercising of upstream's unittest batteries at build-time -- that greatly
improved reliability and guaranteed performance of the scientific software in
Debian.
all of that needs to be distilled anyways into a generalizing, human-readable
sentence (or a paragraph) summarizing our advance in coverage among
different fields and providing an ultimate platform for science.
