- Update to 3.2.1
  + Bug fixes
    * astropy.io.fits
      > Avoid reporting a warning with ``BinTableHDU.from_columns`` with keywords that
        are not provided by the user.  
      > Fix ``Header.fromfile`` to work on FITS files. 
      > Fix reading of empty ``BinTableHDU`` when stored in a gzip-compressed file.
    * astropy.table
      > Fix a problem where mask was dropped when creating a ``MaskedColumn``
        from a list of ``MaskedArray`` objects. 
    * astropy.wcs
      > Added ``None`` to be displayed as a ``world_axis_physical_types`` in
        the ``WCS`` repr, as ``None`` values are now supported in ``APE14``. 
- Update to 3.2
  + New Features
    * astropy.constants
      > Add CODATA 2018 constants but not make them default because the
        redefinition of SI units that will follow has not been implemented
        yet. 
    * astropy.coordinates
      > New ``BarycentricMeanEcliptic``, ``HeliocentricTrueEcliptic`` and
        ``GeocentricTrueEcliptic`` frames.
        The ecliptic frames are no longer considered experimental. 
      > The default time scale for epochs like 'J2000' or 'B1975' is now "tt",
        which is the correct one for 'J2000' and avoids leap-second warnings
        for epochs in the far future or past. 
    * astropy.extern
      > Bundled ``six`` now emits ``AstropyDeprecationWarning``. It will be removed
        in 4.0. 
    * astropy.io.ascii
      > IPAC tables now output data types of ``float`` instead of ``double``, or
        ``int`` instead of ``long``, based on the column ``dtype.itemsize``. 
      > Update handling of MaskedColumn columns when using the 'data_mask' serialization
        method.  This can make writing ECSV significantly faster if the data do not
        actually have any masked values. 
      > Fixed a bug that caused newlines to be incorrect when writing out ASCII tables
        on Windows (they were ``\r\r\n`` instead of ``\r\n``). 
    * astropy.io.misc
      > Implement serialization of ``TimeDelta`` in ASDF. 
      > Implement serialization of ``EarthLocation`` in ASDF. 
      > Implement serialization of ``SkyCoord`` in ASDF. 
      > Support serialization of Astropy tables with mixin columns in ASDF. 
      > No warnings when reading HDF5 files with only one table and no ``path=``
        argument 
      > The HDF5 writer will now create a default table instead of raising an
        exception when ``path=`` is not specified and when writing to empty/new HDF5
        files. 
    * astropy.io.fits
      > Optimize parsing of cards within the ``Header`` class. 
      > Optimize the parsing of headers to get the structural keywords that are
        needed to find extensions. Thanks to this, getting a random HDU from a file
        with many extensions is much faster than before, in particular when the
        extension headers contain many keywords. 
      >  Change behavior of FITS undefined value in ``Header`` such that ``None``
              is used in Python to represent FITS undefined when using dict interface.
              ``Undefined`` can also be assigned and is translated to ``None``.
              Previously setting a header card value to ``None`` resulted in an
              empty string field rather than a FITS undefined value. 
      > Allow ``Header.fromstring`` and ``Card.fromstring`` to accept ``bytes``.
    * astropy.io.registry
      > Implement ``Table`` reader and writer for ``ASDF``. 
      > Implement ``Table`` reader and writer methods to wrap ``pandas`` I/O methods
        for CSV, Fixed width format, HTML, and JSON. 
      > Add ``help()`` and ``list_formats()`` methods to unified I/O ``read`` and
        ``write`` methods. For example ``Table.read.help()`` gives help on available
        ``Table`` read formats and ``Table.read.help('fits')`` gives detailed
        help on the arguments for reading FITS table file. 
    * astropy.table
      > Initializing a table with ``Table(rows=...)``, if the first item is an ``OrderedDict``,
        now uses the column order of the first row. 
      > Added new pprint_all() and pformat_all() methods to Table. These two new
        methods print the entire table by default. 
      > Removed restriction of initializing a Table from a dict with copy=False. 
      > Improved speed of table row access by a factor of about 2-3.  Improved speed
        of Table len() by a factor of around 3-10 (depending on the number of columns).
      > Improved the Table - pandas ``DataFrame`` interface (``to_pandas()`` and
        ``from_pandas()``).  Mixin columns like ``Time`` and ``Quantity`` can now be
        converted to pandas by flattening the columns as necessary to plain
        columns.  ``Time`` and ``TimeDelta`` columns get converted to
        corresponding pandas date or time delta types.  The ``DataFrame``
        index is now handled in the conversion methods. 
      > Added ``rename_columns`` method to rename multiple columns in one call.
      > Improved Table performance by reducing unnecessary calls to copy and deepcopy,
        especially as related to the table and column ``meta`` attributes.  Changed the
        behavior when slicing a table (either in rows or with a list of column names)
        so now the sliced output gets a light (key-only) copy of ``meta`` instead of a
        deepcopy.  Changed the ``Table.meta`` class-level descriptor so that assigning
        directly to ``meta``, e.g. ``tbl.meta = new_meta`` no longer does a deepcopy
        and instead just directly assigns the ``new_meta`` object reference.  Changed
        Table initialization so that input ``meta`` is copied only if ``copy=True``.
      > Improved Table slicing performance with internal implementation changes
        related to column attribute access and certain input validation. 
      > Added ``reverse`` argument to the ``sort`` and ``argsort`` methods to allow
        sorting in reverse order. 
      > Improved ``Table.sort()`` performance by removing ``self[keys]`` from code
        which is creating deep copies of ``meta`` attribute and adding a new keyword
        ``names`` in ``get_index()`` to get index by using a list or tuple containing
        names of columns. 
      > Expose ``represent_mixins_as_columns`` as a public function in the
        ``astropy.table`` subpackage.  This previously-private function in the
        ``table.serialize`` module is used to represent mixin columns in a Table as
        one or more plain Column objects. 
    * astropy.timeseries
      > Added a new astropy.timeseries sub-package to represent and manipulate
        sampled and binned time series. 
      > The ``BoxLeastSquares`` and ``LombScargle`` classes have been moved to
        ``astropy.timeseries.periodograms`` from ``astropy.stats``. 
      > Added the ability to provide absolute ``Time`` objects to the
        ``BoxLeastSquares`` and ``LombScargle`` periodogram classes. 
      > Added model inspection methods (``model_parameters()``, ``design_matrix()``,
        and ``offset()``) to ``astropy.timeseries.LombScargle`` class .
    * astropy.units
      > ``Quantity`` overrides of ``ndarray`` methods such as ``sum``, ``min``,
        ``max``, which are implemented via reductions, have been removed since they
        are dealt with in ``Quantity.__array_ufunc__``. This should not affect
        subclasses, but they may consider doing similarly.   Note that this
        does not include methods that use more complicated python code such as
        ``mean``, ``std`` and ``var``. 
    * astropy.visualization
      > Added ``CompositeStretch``, which inherits from ``CompositeTransform`` and
        also ``BaseStretch`` so that it can be used with ``ImageNormalize``. 
      > Added a ``log_a`` argument to the ``simple_norm`` method. Similar to the
        exposing of the ``asinh_a`` argument for ``AsinhStretch``, the new
        ``log_a`` argument is now exposed for ``LogStretch``. 
    * astropy.wcs
      > WCSLIB was updated to v 6.2.
        This adds support for time-related WCS keywords (WCS Paper VII).
        FITS headers containing ``Time`` axis are parsed and the axis is included in
        the WCS object. 
      > The ``OBSGEO`` attribute as expanded to 6 members - ``XYZLBH``. 
      > Added a new class ``SlicedLowLevelWCS`` in ``astropy.wcs.wcsapi`` that can be
        used to slice any WCS that conforms to the ``BaseLowLevelWCS`` API. 
      > Updated implementation of ``WCS.__getitem__`` and ``WCS.slice`` to now return
        a ``SlicedLowLevelWCS`` rather than raising an error when reducing the
        dimensionality of the WCS. 
  + API Changes
    * astropy.coordinates
      > ``QuantityAttribute`` no longer has a default value for ``default``.  The
        previous value of None was misleading as it always was an error. 
      > The default J2000 has been changed to use be January 1, 2000 12:00 TT instead
        of UTC.  This is more in line with convention. 
    * astropy.io.ascii
      > IPAC tables now output data types of ``float`` instead of ``double``, or
        ``int`` instead of ``long``, based on the column ``dtype.itemsize``. 
    * astropy.io.misc
      > Unit equivalencies can now be serialized to ASDF. 
    * astropy.modeling
      > Composition of model classes is deprecated and will be removed in 4.0.
        Composition of model instances remain unaffected.
    * astropy.stats
      > The ``BoxLeastSquares`` and ``LombScargle`` classes have been moved to the
        ``astropy.timeseries.periodograms`` module and will now emit a deprecation
        warning when imported from ``astropy.stats``. 
    * astropy.table
      > Converting an empty table to an array using ``as_array`` method now returns
        an empty array instead of ``None``. 
      > Changed the behavior when slicing a table (either in rows or with a list of column
        names) so now the sliced output gets a light (key-only) copy of ``meta`` instead of
        a deepcopy.  Changed the ``Table.meta`` class-level descriptor so that assigning
        directly to ``meta``, e.g. ``tbl.meta = new_meta`` no longer does a deepcopy
        and instead just directly assigns the ``new_meta`` object reference. Changed
        Table initialization so that input ``meta`` is copied only if ``copy=True``.
      > Added a keyword ``names`` in ``Table.as_array()``.  If provided this specifies
        a list of column names to include for the returned structured array. 
    * astropy.tests
      > Removed ``pytest_plugins`` as they are completely broken for ``pytest>=4``.
      > Removed the ``astropy.tests.plugins.config`` plugin and removed the
        ``--astropy-config-dir`` and ``--astropy-cache-dir`` options from
        testing. Please use caching functionality that is natively in ``pytest``.
    * astropy.time
      > The default time scale for epochs like 'J2000' or 'B1975' is now "tt",
        which is the correct one for 'J2000' and avoids leap-second warnings
        for epochs in the far future or past. 
    * astropy.units
      > Unit equivalencies can now be introspected. 
    * astropy.wcs
      > The ``world_to_pixel``, ``world_to_array_index*``, ``pixel_to_world*`` and
        ``array_index_to_world*`` methods now all consistently return scalars, arrays,
        or objects not wrapped in a one-element tuple/list when only one scalar,
        array, or object (as was previously already the case for ``WCS.pixel_to_world``
        and ``WCS.array_index_to_world``). 
    * astropy.utils
      > It is now possible to control the number of cores used by ``ProgressBar.map``
        by passing a positive integer as the ``multiprocess`` keyword argument. Use
        ``True`` to use all cores. 
  + Bug Fixes
    * astropy.coordinates
      > ``BarycentricTrueEcliptic``, ``HeliocentricTrueEcliptic`` and
        ``GeocentricTrueEcliptic`` now use the correct transformation
        (including nutation), whereas the new ``*MeanEcliptic`` classes
        use the nutation-free transformation. 
      > Representations with ``float32`` coordinates can now be transformed,
        although the output will always be ``float64``. 
      > Fixed bug that prevented using differentials with HCRS<->ICRS
        transformations. 
    * astropy.io.ascii
      > Fixed a bug where an exception was raised when writing a table which includes
        mixin columns (e.g. a Quantity column) and the output format was specified
        using the ``formats`` keyword. 
    * astropy.io.misc
      > Fixed bug in ASDF tag that inadvertently introduced dependency on ``pytest``.
    * astropy.modeling
      > Fixed slowness for certain compound models consisting of large numbers
        of multi-input models
      > Fixed bugs in fitting of compound models with units. 
    * astropy.nddata
      > Fixed bug in reading multi-extension FITS files written by earlier versions
        of ``CCDData``. 
      > Fixed two errors in the way ``CCDData`` handles FITS files with WCS in the
        header. Some of the WCS keywords that should have been removed from the
        header were not, potentially leading to FITS files with inconsistent
        WCS. 
    * astropy.table
      > Fixed a bug when initializing from an empty list: ``Table([])`` no longer
        results in a crash. 
      > Fixed a bug when initializing from an existing ``Table``.  In this case the
        input ``meta`` argument was being ignored.  Now the input ``meta``, if
        supplied, will be used as the ``meta`` for the new ``Table``. 
      > Fix the conversion of bytes values to Python ``str`` with ``Table.tolist``.
    * astropy.time
      > Fixed a number of issues to ensure a consistent output type resulting from
        multiplication or division involving a ``TimeDelta`` instance. The output is
        now always a ``TimeDelta`` if the result is a time unit (like u.s or u.d),
        otherwise it will be a ``Quantity``. 
      > Multiplication between two ``TimeDelta`` instances is now possible, resulting
        in a ``Quantity`` with units of time squared (division already correctly
        resulted in a dimensionless ``Quantity``). 
      > Like for comparisons, addition, and subtraction of ``Time`` instances with
        with non-time instances, multiplication and division of ``TimeDelta``
        instances with incompatible other instances no longer immediately raise an
        ``UnitsError`` or ``TypeError`` (depending on the other instance), but
        rather go through the regular Python mechanism of ``TimeDelta`` returning
        ``NotImplemented`` (which will lead to a regular ``TypeError`` unless the
        other instance can handle ``TimeDelta``). 
      > Corrected small rounding errors that could cause the ``jd2`` values in
        ``Time`` to fall outside the range of -0.5 to 0.5. 
    * astropy.units
      > Added a ``Quantity.to_string`` method to add flexibility to the string formatting
        of quantities. It produces unadorned or LaTeX strings, and accepts two different
        sets of delimiters in the latter case: ``inline`` and ``display``. 
      > Ensure classes that mimic quantities by having a ``unit`` attribute and/or
        ``to`` and ``to_value`` methods can be properly used to initialize ``Quantity``
        or set ``Quantity`` instance items. 
      > Add support for ``<<`` to create logarithmic units. 
      > Add support for the ``clip`` ufunc, which in numpy 1.17 is used to implement
        ``np.clip``.  As part of that, remove the ``Quantity.clip`` method under
        numpy 1.17. 
      > Fix parsing of numerical powers in FITS-compatible units. 
    * astropy.wcs
      > Added a ``PyUnitListProxy_richcmp`` method in ``UnitListProxy`` class to enable
        ``WCS.wcs.cunit`` equality testing. It helps to check whether the two instances of
        ``WCS.wcs.cunit`` are equal or not by comparing the data members of
        ``UnitListProxy`` class 
      > Fixed ``SlicedLowLevelWCS`` when ``array_shape`` is ``None``. 
      > Do not attempt to delete repeated distortion keywords multiple times when
        loading distortions with ``_read_distortion_kw`` and
        ``_read_det2im_kw``. 
  + Other Changes and Additions
      > Update bundled expat to 2.2.6. 
      > Added instructions for uploading releases to Zenodo. 
      > The bug fixes to the behaviour of ``TimeDelta`` for multiplcation and
        division, which ensure that the output is now always a ``TimeDelta`` if the
        result is a time unit (like u.s or u.d) and otherwise a ``Quantity``, imply
        that sometimes the output type will be different than it was before. 
      > For types unrecognized by ``TimeDelta``, multiplication and division now
        will consistently return a ``TypeError`` if the other instance cannot handle
        ``TimeDelta`` (rather than ``UnitsError`` or ``TypeError`` depending on
        presumed abilities of the other instance). 
      > Multiplication between two ``TimeDelta`` instances will no longer result in
        an ``OperandTypeError``, but rather result in a ``Quantity`` with units of
        time squared (division already correctly resulted in a dimensionless
        ``Quantity``). 
      > Made running the tests insensitive to local user configuration when running
        the tests in parallel mode or directly with pytest. 
      > Added a narrative style guide to the documentation for contributor reference.
      > Ensure we call numpy equality functions in a way that reduces the number
        of ``DeprecationWarning``. 
  + Installation
      > We now require setuptools 30.3.0 or later to install the core astropy
        package. 
      > We now define groups of dependencies that can be installed with pip, e.g.
        ``pip install astropy[all]`` (to install all optional dependencies).

      process. [#8300]
    - astropy.cosmology
      Fix elliptic analytical solution for comoving distance.
      Only relevant for non-flat cosmologies without radiation
      and Om0 > Ode0. [#8391]
    - astropy.modeling
      Fixed slowness for certain compound models consisting of
      large numbers of multi-input models [#8338, #8349]

- Use pytest-astropy since it is in Factory now.
- Update to version 3.1
  + New Features
    > astropy.convolution
      * ``convolve`` now accepts any array-like input, not just ``numpy.ndarray`` or
        lists. [#7303]
      * ``convolve`` Now raises AstropyUserWarning if nan_treatment='interpolate' and
        preserve_nan=False and NaN values are present post convolution. [#8088]
    > astropy.coordinates
      * The ``SkyCoord.from_name`` constructor now has the ability to create
        coordinate objects by parsing object catalogue names that have embedded
        J-coordinates. [#7830]
      * The new function ``make_transform_graph_docs`` can be used to create a
        docstring graph from a custom ``TransformGraph`` object. [#7135]
      * ``KDTree`` for catalog matching is now built with sliding midpoint rule
        rather than standard.  In code, this means setting ``compact_nodes=False``
        and ``balanced_tree=False`` in ``cKDTree``. The sliding midpoint rule is much
        more suitable for catalog matching, and results in 1000x speedup in some
        cases. [#7324]
      * Additional information about a site loaded from the Astropy sites registry is
        now available in ``EarthLocation.info.meta``. [#7857]
      * Added a ``concatenate_representations`` function to combine coordinate
        representation data and any associated differentials. [#7922]
      * ``BaseCoordinateFrame`` will now check for a method named
        ``_astropy_repr_in_frame`` when constructing the string forms of attributes.
        Allowing any class to control how ``BaseCoordinateFrame`` represents it when
        it is an attribute of a frame. [#7745]
      * Some rarely-changed attributes of frame classes are now cached, resulting in
        speedups (up to 50% in some cases) when creating new scalar frame or
        ``SkyCoord`` objects. [#7949, #5952]
      * Added a ``directional_offset_by`` method to ``SkyCoord`` that computes a new
        coordinate given a coordinate, position angle, and angular separation [#5727]
    > astropy.cosmology
      * The default cosmology has been changed from ``WMAP9`` to ``Planck15``. [#8123]
      * Distance calculations with ``LambaCDM`` with no radiation (T_CMB0=0)
        are now 20x faster by using elliptic integrals for non-flat cases. [#7155]
      * Distance calculations with ``FlatLambaCDM`` with no radiation (T_CMB0=0)
        are now 20x faster by using the hypergeometric function solution
        for this special case. [#7087]
      * Age calculations with ``FlatLambdaCDM`` with no radiation (Tcmb0=0)
        are now 1000x faster by using analytic solutions instead of integrating.
        [#7117]
    > astropy.io.ascii
      * Latex reader now ignores ``\toprule``, ``\midrule``, and ``\bottomrule``
        commands. [#7349]
      * Added the RST (Restructured-text) table format and the fast version of the
        RDB reader to the set of formats that are guessed by default. [#5578]
      * The read trace (used primarily for debugging) now includes guess argument
        sets that were skipped entirely e.g. for not supporting user-supplied kwargs.
        All guesses thus removed from ``filtered_guess_kwargs`` are now listed as
        "Disabled" at the beginning of the trace. [#5578]
      * Emit a warning when reading an ECSV file without specifying the ``format``
        and without PyYAML installed.  Previously this silently fell through to
        parsing as a basic format file and the file metadata was lost. [#7580]
      * Optionally allow writing masked columns to ECSV with the mask explicitly
        specified as a separate column instead of marking masked elements with ""
        (empty string).  This allows handling the case of a masked string column
        with "" data rows.  [#7481]
    > astropy.io.misc
      * Added support for saving all representation classes and many coordinate
        frames to the asdf format. [#7079]
      * Added support for saving models with units to the asdf format. [#7237]
      * Added a new ``character_as_bytes`` keyword to the HDF5 Table reading
        function to control whether byte string columns in the HDF5 file
        are left as bytes or converted to unicode.  The default is to read
        as bytes (``character_as_bytes=True``). [#7024, #8017]
    > astropy.io.fits
      * ``HDUList.pop()`` now accepts string and tuple extension name
        specifications. [#7236]
      * Add an ``ignore_hdus`` keyword to ``FITSDiff`` to allow ignoring HDUs by
        NAME when diffing two FITS files [#7538]
      * Optionally allow writing masked columns to FITS with the mask explicitly
        specified as a separate column instead of using the FITS standard of
        certain embedded null values (``NaN`` for float, ``TNULL`` for integers).
        This can be used to work around limitations in the FITS standard. [#7481]
      * All time coordinates can now be written to and read from FITS binary tables,
        including those with vectorized locations. [#7430]
      * The ``fitsheader`` command line tool now supports a ``dfits+fitsort`` mode,
        and the dotted notation for keywords (e.g. ``ESO.INS.ID``). [#7240]
      * Fall back to reading arrays using mode='denywrite' if mode='readonly' fails
        when using memory-mapping. This solves cases on some platforms when the
        available address space was less than the file size (even when using memory
        mapping). [#7926]
    > astropy.modeling
      * Add a ``Multiply`` model which preserves unit through evaluate, unlike
        ``Scale`` which is dimensionless. [#7210]
      * Add a ``uses_quantity`` property to ``Model`` which allows introspection of if
        the ``Model`` can accept ``Quantity`` objects. [#7417]
      * Add a ``separability_matrix`` function which returns the correlation matrix
        of inputs and outputs. [#7803]
      * Fixed compatibility of ``JointFitter`` with the latest version of Numpy. [#7984]
      * Add ``prior`` and ``posterior`` constraints to modeling parameters. These are
        not used by any current fitters, but are provided to allow user code to
        experiment with Bayesian fitters.  [#7558]
    > astropy.nddata
      * ``NDUncertainty`` objects now have a ``quantity`` attribute for simple
        conversion to quantities. [#7704]
      * Add a ``bitmask`` module that provides functions for manipulating bitmasks
        and data quality (DQ) arrays. [#7944]
    > astropy.stats
      * Add an ``astropy.stats.bls`` module with an implementation of the "box least
        squares" periodogram that is commonly used for discovering transiting
        exoplanets and eclipsing binaries. [#7391]
    > astropy.table
      * Added support for full use of ``Time`` mixin column for join, hstack, and
        vstack table operations. [#6888]
      * Added a new table index engine, ``SCEngine``, based on the Sorted Containers
        package. [#7574]
      * Add a new keyword argument ``serialize_method`` to ``Table.write`` to
        control how ``Time`` and ``MaskedColumn`` columns are written. [#7481]
      * Allow mixin columns to be used in table ``group`` and ``unique``
        functions. This applies to both the key columns and the other data
        columns. [#7712]
      * Added support for stacking ``Column``, mixin column (e.g. ``Quantity``,
        ``Time``) or column-like objects. [#7674]
      * Added support for inserting a row into a Table that has ``Time`` or
        ``TimeDelta`` column(s). [#7897]
    > astropy.tests
      * Added an option ``--readonly`` to the test command to change the
        permissions on the temporary installation location to read-only. [#7598]
    > astropy.time
      * Allow array-valued ``Time`` object to be modified in place. [#6028]
      * Added support for missing values (masking) to the ``Time`` class. [#6028]
      * Added supper for a 'local' time scale (for free-running clocks, etc.),
        and round-tripping to the corresponding FITS time scale. [#7122]
      * Added `datetime.timedelta` format class for ``TimeDelta``. [#7441]
      * Added ``strftime`` and ``strptime`` methods to ``Time`` class.
        These methods are similar to those in the Python standard library
        `time` package and provide flexible input and output formatting. [#7323]
      * Added ``datetime64`` format to the ``Time`` class to support working with
        ``numpy.datetime64`` dtype arrays. [#7361]
      * Add fractional second support for ``strftime`` and ``strptime`` methods
        of ``Time`` class. [#7705]
      * Added an ``insert`` method to allow inserting one or more values into a
        ``Time`` or ``TimeDelta`` object. [#7897]
      * Remove timescale from string version of FITS format time string.
        The timescale is not part of the FITS standard and should not be included.
        This change may cause some compatibility issues for code that relies on
        round-tripping a FITS format string with a timescale. Strings generated
        from previous versions of this package are still understood but a
        DeprecationWarning will be issued. [#7870]
    > astropy.uncertainty
      * This sub-package was added as a "preview" (i.e. API unstable), containing
        the ``Distribution`` class and associated convenience functions. [#6945]
    > astropy.units
      * Add complex numbers support for ``Quantity._repr_latex_``. [#7676]
      * Add ``thermodynamic_temperature`` equivalency to convert between
        Jy/beam and "thermodynamic temperature" for cosmology. [#7054]
      * Add millibar unit. [#7863]
      * Add maggy and nanomaggy unit, as well as associated ``zero_point_flux``
        equivalency. [#7891]
      * ``AB`` and ``ST`` are now enabled by default, and have alternate names
        ``ABflux`` and ``STflux``. [#7891]
      * Added ``littleh`` unit and associated ``with_H0`` equivalency. [#7970]
    > astropy.visualization
      * Added ``imshow_norm`` function, which combines imshow and creation of a
        ``ImageNormalize`` object. [#7785]
    > astropy.visualization.wcsaxes
      * Add support for setting ``set_separator(None)`` in WCSAxes to use default
        separators. [#7570]
      * Added two keyword argument options to ``CoordinateHelper.set_format_unit``:
        ``decimal`` can be used to specify whether to use decimal formatting for the
        labels (by default this is False for degrees and hours and True otherwise),
        and ``show_decimal_unit`` can be used to determine whether the units should be
        shown for decimal labels. [#7318]
      * Added documentation for ``transform=`` and ``coord_meta=``. [#7698]
      * Allow ``coord_meta=`` to optionally include ``format_unit=``. [#7848]
      * Add support for more rcParams related to the grid, ticks, and labels, and
        should work with most built-in Matplotlib styles. [#7961]
      * Improved rendering of outward-facing ticks. [#7961]
      * Add support for ``tick_params`` (which is a standard Matplotlib
        function/method) on both the ``WCSAxes`` class and the individual
        ``CoordinateHelper`` classes. Note that this is provided for compatibility
        with Matplotlib syntax users may be familiar with, but it is not the
        preferred way to change settings. Instead, methods such as ``set_ticks``
        should be preferred. [#7969]
      * Moved the argument ``exclude_overlapping`` from ``set_ticks`` to
        ``set_ticklabel``. [#7969]
      * Added a ``pad=`` argument to ``set_ticklabel`` to provide a way to control
        the padding between ticks and tick labels. [#7969]
      * Added support for setting the tick direction in ``set_ticks`` using the
        ``direction=`` keyword argument. [#7969]
    > astropy.wcs
      * Map ITRS frames to terrestrial WCS coordinates. This will make it possible to
        use WCSAxes to make figures that combine both celestial and terrestrial
        features. An example is plotting the coordinates of an astronomical transient
        over an all- sky satellite image to illustrate the position relative to the
        Earth at the time of the event. The ITRS frame is identified with WCSs that
        use the ``TLON-`` and ``TLAT-`` coordinate types. There are several examples
        of WCSs where this syntax is used to describe terrestrial coordinate systems:
        Section 7.4.1 of `WCS in FITS "Paper II" <http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2002A%26A...395.1077C>`_
        and the `WCSTools documentation <http://tdc-www.harvard.edu/software/wcstools/wcstools.multiwcs.html>`_.
        [#6990]
      * Added the abstract base class for the low-level WCS API described in APE 14
        (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.1188875). [#7325]
      * Add ``WCS.contains()`` function to check if the WCS footprint contains a given sky coordinate. [#7273]
      * Added the abstract base class for the high-level WCS API described in APE 14
        (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.1188875). [#7325]
      * Added the high-level wrapper class for low-level WCS objects as described in
        APE 14 (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.1188875). [#7326]
      * Added a new property ``WCS.has_distortion``. [#7326]
      * Deprecated ``_naxis1`` and ``_naxis2`` in favor of ``pixel_shape``. [#7973]
      * Added compatibility to wcslib version 6. [#8093]
  + API Changes
    > astropy.convolution
      * ``kernel`` can now be a tuple. [#7561]
      * Not technically an API changes, however, the docstring indicated that ``boundary=None``
        was the default when actually it is ``boundary='fill'``. The docstring has been corrected,
        however, someone may interpret this as an API change not realizing that nothing has actually
        changed. [#7293]
      * ``interpolate_replace_nans()`` can no longer accept the keyword argument
        ``preserve_nan``. It is explicitly set to ``False``. [#8088]
    > astropy.coordinates
      * Fixed ``astropy.coordinates.concatenate`` to include velocity data in the
        concatenation. [#7922]
      * Changed the name of the single argument to ``Frame.realize_frame()`` from the
        (incorrect) ``representation_type`` to ``data``. [#7923]
      * Negative parallaxes passed to ``Distance()`` now raise an error by default
        (``allow_negative=False``), or are converted to NaN values with a warning
        (``allow_negative=True``). [#7988]
      * Negating a ``SphericalRepresentation`` object now changes the angular
        coordinates (by rotating 180º) instead of negating the distance. [#7988]
      * Creation of new frames now generally creates copies of frame attributes,
        rather than inconsistently either copying or making references. [#8204]
      * The frame class method ``is_equivalent_frame`` now checks for equality of
        components to determine if a frame is the same when it has frame attributes
        that are representations, rather than checking if they are the same
        object. [#8218]
    > astropy.io.ascii
      * If a fast reader is explicitly selected (e.g. ``fast_reader='force'``) and
        options which are incompatible with the fast reader are provided
        (e.g. ``quotechar='##'``) then now a ``ParameterError`` exception will be
        raised. [#5578]
      * The fast readers will now raise ``InconsistentTableError`` instead of
        ``CParserError`` if the number of data and header columns do not match.
        [#5578]
      * Changed a number of ``ValueError`` exceptions to ``InconsistentTableError``
        in places where the exception is related to parsing a table which is
        inconsistent with the specified table format.  Note that
        ``InconsistentTableError`` inherits from ``ValueError`` so no user code
        changes are required. [#7425]
    > astropy.io.fits
      * The ``fits.table_to_hdu()`` function will translate any column ``format``
        attributes to a TDISPn format string, if possible, and store it as a TDISPn
        keyword in the ``HDU`` header. [#7226]
    > astropy.modeling
      * Change the order of the return values from ``FittingWithOutlierRemoval``,
        such that ``fitted_model`` comes first, for consistency with other fitters.
        For the second value, return only a boolean outlier ``mask``, instead of the
        previous ``MaskedArray`` (which included a copy of the input data that was
        both redundant and inadvertently corrupted at masked points). Return a
        consistent type for the second value when ``niter=0``. [#7407]
      * Set the minimum value for the ``bolometric_flux`` parameter of the
        ``BlackBody1D`` model to zero. [#7045]
    > astropy.nddata
      * Add two new uncertainty classes, ``astropy.nddata.VarianceUncertainty`` and
        ``astropy.nddata.InverseVariance``. [#6971]
    > astropy.stats
      * String values can now be used for the ``cenfunc`` and ``stdfunc``
        keywords in the ``SigmaClip`` class and ``sigma_clip`` and
        ``sigma_clipped_stats`` functions. [#7478]
      * The ``SigmaClip`` class and ``sigma_clip`` and
        ``sigma_clipped_stats`` functions now have a ``masked`` keyword,
        which can be used to return either a masked array (default) or an
        ndarray with the min/max values. [#7478]
      * The ``iters`` keyword has been renamed (and deprecated) to
        ``maxiters`` in the ``SigmaClip`` class and ``sigma_clip`` and
        ``sigma_clipped_stats`` functions. [#7478]
    > astropy.table
      * ``Table.read()`` on a FITS binary table file will convert any TDISPn header
        keywords to a Python formatting string when possible, and store it in the
        column ``format`` attribute. [#7226]
      * No values provided to stack will now raise ``ValueError`` rather than
        ``TypeError``. [#7674]
    > astropy.tests
      * ``from astropy.tests.helper import *`` no longer includes
        ``quantity_allclose``. However,
        ``from astropy.tests.helper import quantity_allclose`` would still work.
        [#7381]
      * ``warnings_to_ignore_by_pyver`` option in
        ``enable_deprecations_as_exceptions()`` now takes ``None`` as key.
        Any deprecation message that is mapped to ``None`` will be ignored
        regardless of the Python version. [#7790]
    > astropy.time
      * Added the ability to use ``local`` as time scale in ``Time`` and
        ``TimeDelta``. [#6487]
      * Comparisons, addition, and subtraction of ``Time`` instances with non-time
        instances will now return ``NotImplemented`` rather than raise the
        ``Time``-specific ``OperandTypeError``.  This will generally lead to a
        regular ``TypeError``.  As a result, ``OperandTypeError`` now only occurs if
        the operation is between ``Time`` instances of incompatible type or scale.
        [#7584]
    > astropy.units
      * In ``UnitBase.compose()``, if a sequence (list|tuple) is passed in to
        ``units``, the default for ``include_prefix_units`` is set to
        `True`, so that no units get ignored. [#6957]
      * Negative parallaxes are now converted to NaN values when using the
        ``parallax`` equivalency. [#7988]
    > astropy.utils
      * ``InheritDocstrings`` now also works on class properties. [#7166]
      * ``diff_values()``, ``report_diff_values()``, and ``where_not_allclose()``
        utility functions are moved from ``astropy.io.fits.diff``. [#7444]
      * ``invalidate_caches()`` has been removed from the
        ``astropy.utils.compat`` namespace, use it directly from ``importlib``. [#7872]
    > astropy.visualization
      * In ``ImageNormalize``, the default for ``clip`` is set to ``True``. [#7800]
      * Changed ``AsymmetricPercentileInterval`` and ``MinMaxInterval`` to
        ignore NaN values in arrays. [#7360]
      * Automatically default to using ``grid_type='contours'`` in WCSAxes when using
        a custom ``Transform`` object if the transform has no inverse. [#7847]
  + Performance Improvements
      * Reduced import time by more cautious use of the standard library. [#7647]
    > astropy.convolution
      * Major performance overhaul to ``convolve()``. [#7293]
      * ``convolve()``: Boundaries ``fill``, ``extend``, and ``wrap`` now use a single
        implementation that pads the image with the correct boundary values before convolving.
        The runtimes of these three were significantly skewed. They now have
        equivalent runtimes that are also faster than before due to performant contiguous
        memory access. However, this does increase the memory footprint as an entire
        new image array is required plus that needed for the padded region.[#7293]
      * ``convolve()``: Core computation ported from Cython to C. Several optimization
        techniques have been implemented to achieve performance gains, e.g. compiler
        hoisting, and vectorization, etc. Compiler optimization level ``-O2`` required for
        hoisting and ``-O3`` for vectorization. [#7293]
      * ``convolve()``: ``nan_treatment=‘interpolate’`` was slow to compute irrespective of
        whether any NaN values exist within the array. The input array is now
        checked for NaN values and interpolation is disabled if non are found. This is a
        significant performance boost for arrays without NaN values. [#7293]
    > astropy.coordinates
      * Sped up creating SkyCoord objects by a factor of ~2 in some cases. [#7615]
      * Sped up getting xyz vectors from ``CartesianRepresentation`` (which
        is used a lot internally). [#7638]
      * Sped up transformations and some representation methods by replacing
        python code with (compiled) ``erfa`` ufuncs. [#7639]
      * Sped up adding differential (velocity) data to representations by a factor of
        ~20, which improves the speed of frame and SkyCoord initialization. [#7924]
      * Refactored ``SkyCoord`` initializer to improve performance and code clarity.
        [#7958]
      * Sped up initialization of ``Longitude`` by ~40%. [#7616]
    > astropy.stats
      * The ``SigmaClip`` class and ``sigma_clip`` and
        ``sigma_clipped_stats`` functions are now significantly faster. [#7478]
      * A Cython implementation for `astropy.stats.kuiper_two` and a vectorized
        implementation for `astropy.stats.kuiper_false_positive_probability` have
        been added, speeding up both functions.  [#8104]
    > astropy.units
      * Sped up creating new composite units, and raising units to some power
        [#7549, #7649]
      * Sped up Unit.to when target unit is the same as the original unit.
        [#7643]
      * Lazy-load ``scipy.special`` to shorten ``astropy.units`` import time. [#7636]
    > astropy.visualization
      * Significantly sped up drawing of contours in WCSAxes. [#7568]
  + Bug Fixes
    > astropy.convolution
      * Fixed bug in ``convolve_fft`` where masked input was copied with
        ``numpy.asarray`` instead of ``numpy.asanyarray``.
        ``numpy.asarray`` removes the mask subclass causing
        ``numpy.ma.ismasked(input)`` to fail, causing ``convolve_fft``
        to ignore all masked input. [#8137]
      * Remove function side-effects of input data from ``convolve_fft``.
        It was possible for input data to remain modified if particular exceptions
        were raised. [#8152]
    > astropy.coordinates
      * ``EarthLocation.of_address`` now uses the OpenStreetMap geocoding API by
        default to retrieve coordinates, with the Google API (which now requires an
        API key) as an option. [#7918]
      * Fixed a bug that caused frame objects with NaN distances to have NaN sky
        positions, even if valid sky coordinates were specified. [#7988]
      * Fixed ``represent_as()`` to not round-trip through cartesian if the same
        representation class as the instance is passed in. [#7988]
    > astropy.io.ascii
      * Fixed a problem when ``guess=True`` that ``fast_reader`` options
        could be dropped after the first fast reader class was tried. [#5578]
      * Units in CDS-formatted tables are now parsed correctly by the units
        module. [#7348]
    > astropy.io.misc
      * Fixed bug when writing a table with masked columns to HDF5. Previously
        the mask was being silently dropped.  If the ``serialize_meta`` option is
        enabled the data mask will now be written as an additional column and the
        masked columns will round-trip correctly. [#7481]
      * Fixed a bug where writing to HDF5 failed for for tables with columns of
        unicode strings.  Now those columns are first encoded to UTF-8 and
        written as byte strings. [#7024, #8017]
      * Fixed a bug with serializing the bounding_box of models initialized
        with ``Quantities`` . [#8052]
    > astropy.io.fits
      * Added support for ``copy.copy`` and ``copy.deepcopy`` for ``HDUList``. [#7218]
      * Override ``HDUList.copy()`` to return a shallow HDUList instance. [#7218]
    > astropy.modeling
      * Fix behaviour of certain models with units, by making certain unit-related
        attributes readonly. [#7210]
      * Fixed an issue with validating a ``bounding_box`` whose items are
        ``Quantities``. [#8052]
      * Fix ``Moffat1D`` and ``Moffat2D`` derivatives. [#8108]
    > astropy.nddata
      * Fixed rounding behavior in ``overlap_slices`` for even-sized small
        arrays. [#7859]
      * Added support for pickling ``NDData`` instances that have an uncertainty.
        [#7383]
    > astropy.stats
      * Fix errors in ``kuiper_false_positive_probability``. [#7975]
    > astropy.tests
      * Fixing bug that prevented to run the doctests on only a single rst documentation
        file rather than all of them. [#8055]
    > astropy.time
      * Fix a bug when setting a ``TimeDelta`` array item with plain float value(s).
        This was always interpreted as a JD (day) value regardless of the
        ``TimeDelta`` format. [#7990]
    > astropy.units
      * To simplify fast creation of ``Quantity`` instances from arrays, one can now
        write ``array << unit`` (equivalent to ``Quantity(array, unit, copy=False)``).
        If ``array`` is already a ``Quantity``, this will convert the quantity to the
        requested units; in-place conversion can be done with ``quantity <<= unit``.
        [#7734]
    > astropy.utils
      * Fixed a bug due to which ``report_diff_values()`` was reporting incorrect
        number of differences when comparing two ``numpy.ndarray``. [#7470]
      * The download progress bar is now only displayed in terminals, to avoid
        polluting piped output. [#7577]
      * Ignore URL mirror caching when there is no internet. [#8163]
    > astropy.visualization
      * Right ascension coordinates are now shown in hours by default, and the
        ``set_format_unit`` method on ``CoordinateHelper`` now works correctly
        with angle coordinates. [#7215]
  + Other Changes and Additions
      * The documentation build now uses the Sphinx configuration from sphinx-astropy
        rather than from astropy-helpers. [#7139]
      * Versions of Numpy <1.13 are no longer supported. [#7058]
      * Running tests now suppresses the output of the installation stage by default,
        to allow easier viewing of the test results. To re-enable the output as
        before, use ``python setup.py test --verbose-install``. [#7512]
      * The ERFA functions are now wrapped in ufuncs instead of custom C code,
        leading to some speed improvements, and setting the stage for allowing
        overrides with ``__array_ufunc__``. [#7502]
      * Updated the bundled CFITSIO library to 3.450. See
        ``cextern/cfitsio/docs/changes.txt`` for additional information. [#8014]
      * The ``representation`` keywords in coordinate frames are now deprecated in
        favor of the ``representation_type`` keywords (which are less
        ambiguously named). [#8119]
- Update to 3.0.5
    * Update to 3.* is a large step, which contains these main
      improvements:
        - Full support for velocities in astropy.coordinates
        - Support for position updates based on source motion for
          SkyCoord objects
        - Context managers for versioned constants
        - Support for quantities in scipy special functions
        - showtable command line script
        - Lossless writing and reading mixin columns to HDF5 and
          FITS
        - Support for FITS time standard
        - FITS table performance enhancements
        - False alarm probabilities in astropy.stats.LombScargle
        - Reading large ASCII files in chunks
        - Astropy now only supports Python 3
        - pytest plugins moved to external packages
