New conda-pypi release

[danyeaw]

We have quite a few fixes and improvements together including this critical bug in #249. We should set up rever and do another release.

Acceptance Criteria:

• Backfill news items
• Release with rever
• Updating release instructions
• Bump conda-forge recipe and request main recipe update

[danpetry]

Thanks, @tombenes and I are dependent on the changes we recently submitted, too. Anything I can contribute here to move things along?

[danyeaw]

Hey @danpetry, we'll try to do a release early next week. You can also try it out with the canary builds if you want as well.

[jezdez]

Yeah, the canaries are always preferable for short-notice reliance for Anaconda-internal needs.

conda-pypi releases should not be gate-kept or influenced by Anaconda-internal deadlines as a conda community project.

[danyeaw]

Hi @jezdez, #250 is a critical issue where we are corrupting repodata that needs a fix. The fact that the release also helps some others is great as well.

[jezdez]

Ah right, that's fair, I forgot that part

[danpetry]

ok thanks for the context
