Tag a new release

[davidanthoff]

Would be great to get a release that has #327 in it.

yep, i've been thinking we should tag soon too. a few issues to consider beforehand:

#324
#322
GiovineItalia/Gadfly.jl#1226

GiovineItalia/Gadfly.jl#1226 is a Gadfly issue. Did you mean GiovineItalia/Gadfly.jl#1225? Multiline text for svg is an issue that needs fixing in Compose.

[bjarthur]

GiovineItalia/Gadfly.jl#1226 concerns opacity, and might hence be related to #324 and #322. are these latter two issues resolved and just not closed? if so, i'm fine with tagging now. multi-line text is a newish issue that can wait to be included in another release.

@tlnagy thoughts?

[Mattriks]

Gadfly has never supported opacity in the color aesthetic (and hence not in the color key), e.g. GiovineItalia/Gadfly.jl#844. It can be done for Geom.ribbon and Geom.polygon via Theme(lowlight_color=opacity function), but I see that as a temporary patch, and opacity in the color aesthetic really needs a well thought out design in Gadfly:

plan is to tag a release tomorrow after i test out the latest merges to master today. please let me know if there are any problems with the current master branch.
