Hi everyone. We are pleased to announce the release of Zipline 1.1.1! Thank you to everyone who contributed!

Some highlights of this release:
  • Broad support for futures, in addition to equities
  • Support for Python 3.5
  • We have swapped out Yahoo-related benchmarking code with references to Google Finance 
  • Removed all deprecated Yahoo code, including the usage of custom Yahoo bundles
  • Added a Development Guidelines section to the zipline documentation
For a full list of changes, see: http://www.zipline.io/releases.html#release-1-1-1

You can get the latest version from PyPI by running: $ pip install --upgrade zipline
or from anaconda.org* by running: $ conda update zipline -c quantopian

If you have issues with calls to functions like load_from_yahoo, because it was removed along with other deprecated code, you can see this questions I answered on GitHub.

Note: Conda packages for OSX have not yet been uploaded.


Thanks,
Freddie
