Hi everyone. Yesterday we released Zipline 1.2.0! And a big thank you to everyone who contributed!

Here are some of the highlights of this release:

• Documentation on using custom Trading Calendars
• How to use your own custom csv data
• We now default to the quandl bundle, for which you need a QUANDL_API_KEY
• Fixes for downloading benchmark data

For a full list of changes, please see the release notes: http://www.zipline.io/releases.html#release-1-2-0

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

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

Thanks,
