Hi pythraners,

[this only impacts git repo users, nothing new on pypi]

two majors PR have been merged recently, one from Pierrick and one from
me.

The first one implements a first coupling with BLAS (for np.dot on
matrix implementation), the second upgrades the compilation toolchain to
use the distutils abstraction layer.

Why am I writing about this? Because users of the development version
need to

1. run `python setup.py clean build` to fetch the new version of nt2,
used as an abstraction layer for the BLAS.

2. update their pythranrc. The new sections are extensively described in
doc/MANUAL.rst, and the old versions trigger a warning.

On the way for numpy.linalg and Windows support!

cheers,

serge
