@eteq - what do you think of the SAMP entry? I didn't want to show a full example since it would be quite long.

cc @embray @mdboom (since this includes astropy-helpers and config)

That looks ok to me @astrofrog ... I guess my inclination would have been for the "what's new" to feature DS9 interaction instead of topcat, as I think more users are likely to be familiar with DS9... But that might be my bias, so either way is fine.

Should I issue a PR to add mention of coordinates to what's new, or are you going to add that? I think it should be high on the list (maybe the top?) because it's a pretty important user-facing change.

Oh, I just saw #2416 - is that the tracker for what goes in what's new?

Maybe also say we might drop 2.6 ? This was discussed but I'm not sure if we actually settled or not. And are there any changes to the supported numpy? (I think not, but just checking)

Re: 2.6, I don't think we want to drop support yet, I think that 1.0 (the first LTS) should support Python 2.6 because the kind of environments where an LTS might be needed likely could be using something like 2.6 too.

Re: numpy, same argument, I think we should not drop 1.5.x until after 1.0.

What do you think?

Yeah, you're probably right. It's annoying, but c'est la vie ...

@eteq - it might be easier to simply merge this then open PRs to master for any other changes.

Yep - looks like the failure is a red herring, so merging now.
