History of changes for WinPython 3.4.3.4

The following changes were made to WinPython distribution since version 3.4.3.3.

Python packages

New packages:

• mysql_connector_python 2.0.3 → 2.0.4 (MySQL driver written in Python)
• nose 1.3.6 → 1.3.7 (nose is a discovery-based unittest extension (e.g. NumPy test module is using nose))
• numba 0.18.2 → 0.19.2 (compiling Python code using LLVM)
• oct2py 3.1.0 → 3.2.0 (Python to GNU Octave bridge --> run m-files from python.)

• tornado 4.1 → 4.2 (Scalable, non-blocking web server and tools (required for IPython notebook))

Removed packages:

• tqdm 1.0 (A Simple Python Progress Meter)

build2 (2015-06-25: IPython 3.2, spyder 2.3.5, pandas 0.16.2, cython 0.22.1, numba 0.19.2, dask 0.5, vispy 0.4)

main features of build2:

• rework 'spyder' application launchers for spyder 2.3.5, as previous method didn't work anymore,
  (many thanks to Christoph Gohlke for the new forward/backward compatible solution)
• release expected on time if nobody complains.
