[python-control-announce] Python-control development environment shifted to github

[Richard M. <mu...@cd...>]

Following a discussion on the developers list, the source code repository and issues tracking for python-control package have been shifted from SourceForge to GitHub.  User support for python-control remains on SourceForge, including downloads of the latest release, code documentation, and user discussion lists.

If you are a user of python-control, you can continue to use SourceForge as the primary location of file downloads and user documentation:

  http://python-control.sourceforge.net/
  http://python-control.sourceforge.net/manual/

The current release of python-control is 0.6d, release on 22 March 2014.  A new version should be coming sometime this summer.

In addition to shifting the development environment to GitHub, we have change the python-control-discuss mailing list from a developers-only list to a general discussion list.  Feel free to use that list if you want to see discussions about usage of the package:

  https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/python-control-discuss

This list (python-control-announce) will continue to be a low-volume mailing list with posts regarding new releases of the package or other major updates.

For those who are interested in the very latest version of python-control, you can clone the python-control project on github:
