Hey folks,

It is my great pleasure to share with you this new release of the pythran
compiler.

    Pythran is an ahead of time compiler for scientific kernels written in
    Python.

As usual the release is now available on PyPi[0] and Github[1] and will soon
stream to conda and major distro thanks to the restless packagers, who I
personnaly thank for testing the release before it got released.

The people interested in the details can read the official Changelog[2], but two
points are worth mentionning:

- A lot of efforts have been put into optimizing the quality of the generated
  code, especially for small function taking scalars as parameters and
  high-level sliced expression. I hope it will improve some of your codes!

- This releases includes a compatibility patch for the latest release of the
  gast package. It fixes the following error you would get with pythran 0.12.x

    AttributeError: type object 'PatternTransform' has no attribute 'typePatterns'

Special thanks to @drew-parsons, @andyfaff, @jeanlaroche and @stefanv for testing
this release.

Thomas A Caswell and Mark Harfouche contributed patches to this new version,
high five to them!

I'm hiding a lot of bugs in Pythran, some of them eventually get fixed. I'm very
grateful to the bug reporter who contribute, in their own way, to prove the
project is well alived. @Dapid, @radkoff, @stefanv, @ivorblockley, @peterhil,
@nbecker, you all reported at least one bug that got fixed in this release :-)
