First Release Discussion

[cicdw]

@TomAugspurger has mentioned having a first release soon; I'd like to collect the things that we think are blocking that from happening at this moment and check them off the list (any of these left un-checked are open for anyone to work on):

• some minimal statistical output (e.g., p-values for non-regularized problems)
• docs
• some sort of algorithm selection criteria (nothing complicated or fancy, just, e.g., if l1 regularization, don't do newton)
• add initialization kwarg to all algorithms

Anything else that I'm missing that we should have before a release?

I see the docs checked off but there is no link to generated docs in the readme (readthedocs?). I would also add in just a little more info to the readme.

[TomAugspurger]

Thanks. Added links in aae15bd

@moody-marlin I think the 4th item (**kwargs to all algos) can be checked off.

Will you have a chance to work on / sketch out what's needed for the statistical output sometime this week? I have some time on Friday that I could use to cut a release.

[cicdw]

Hey @TomAugspurger - really sorry about the radio silence on my end; I have time to knock off the other checkboxes before Friday (tonight or tomorrow night). (For the initialization kwarg I just need to tell the algos how to use it).

For the statistical output, I have time to sketch something out for sure, but I don't want to promise a strongly validated set of statistical outputs before Friday, if that makes sense. I.e., it will be a first pass to include a statistic or two, and provide the framework for including more, but it will still need to be checked and double checked to be airtight.

[TomAugspurger]

Sounds good. My free time has evaporated (funny how that happens) so it'll be next week at the earliest anyway.

[cicdw]

Cool cool, that works for me too (traveling yet again); working on it over here for anyone interested.

late to the party here. I am happy to pick-up some work for the release if it doesnt come in the way of @TomAugspurger and @moody-marlin

[TomAugspurger]

Ideally we would have something by scipy, as I think you have a talk scheduled :) I'll be busy the rest of the week, but can take a look early next week to see where we are.

I put a 0.1.0 up on PyPI at https://pypi.org/project/dask-glm/

Let me know if you'd like to be added as a maintainer.

[cicdw]

@TomAugspurger yea you can put me down as a maintainer!

[TomAugspurger]

Thanks Chris. Do you have an account on https://pypi.python.org/pypi?
