Release of 0.8.0

[Pierre Yger]

Dear all

We've just pushed a 0.8.0 release, and I would suggest you to update your installations accordingly (with pip or conda) if you are using an old version of the software. There are lots of improvements, and you will find the details in the changelog. An important point, for those of you that are using phy to visualize the results, is that now the software is compatible with phy 2.0, such that you should also upgrade phy accordingly (now using pyqt5). Phy-contrib has been renamed phylib, and you should upgrade phy (currently following the dev branch in a different git folder, cortex-lab instead of kwikteam). Phy 2.0 will give you much more possibilities to view/refine the raw results.

>> pip install colorcet pyopengl

>> pip install --upgrade http://github.com/cortex-lab/phy/archive/dev.zip

>> pip install --upgrade http://github.com/cortex-lab/phylib/archive/master.zip

Among the changes, the clustering should now be more robust and faster, and some minor bugs have been fixed here and there. 

Looking forward for more feedback from the users,

Pierre
