@alisnwu, I saw lots of PRs today—thanks! Just wondering if there are any issues here, besides #138, that you would need further discussions?

[alisnwu]

@bobleesj I think everything is good so far! I made edits to #140 and #129 based on simon's comments and #137 should be done after #138 is decided. I believe #144 is just waiting to be merged

[bobleesj]

Thanks for the update. Just resolved the bottleneck for #138: #138 (comment)

[bobleesj]

@alisnwu Would it be possible to do the 3.5.1 checklist tomorrow? I think #158 needs to be into a new PR as requested. Thanks a lot for your hard work.

[alisnwu]

Yep sounds good, I will make a new PR for that tonight

[bobleesj]

@alisnwu almost there! great progress.

[sbillinge]

@alisnwu I merged the other PR that previously had all the function name changes.

We will need a new PR where we deprecate Diffraction_object in favor of DiffractionObject.

Let's do that one as a practice. We can tackle loadData later if we want to, so for now just leave that as it is. You would normally deprecate something for two mid-level release numbers at least.

[bobleesj]

#165

@alisnwu Just to make sure, the deprecation task is handled in the PR above to to set a standard where we can build upon.

[bobleesj]

@alisnwu Would you make a PR for the one remaining issue above?

[bobleesj]

@alisnwu Alison, I've noticed this PR is created #169 by @Sparks29032

What's going on? Does it close #137 ?

[alisnwu]

@bobleesj Andrew was not experiencing the errors from sphinx that I was on his local, so this would PR should close #137

[bobleesj]

Will you be making the release checklist, @alisnwu? Ideally, we need some buffer time before tomorrow's group meeting to test the package (Please see the checklist). We should probably do it this morning or early afternoon latest to make it realistic, since @sbillinge needs to release packages manually.

[alisnwu]

@bobleesj Yep, already made the checklist. However, still need to check off the new tasks in the 3.5.1 milestone
