Hi @yfukai , I can take care of #193, #194 and #228

[JoOkuma]

There are a lot of things to be completed, and I don't think we need to stress ourselves to get everything done in a week.
Christmas is near, and we can release it in early January.
Additionally, releasing is very easy, so we can increment the minor versions and release frequently.

Nonetheless, I love the motivation to improve our package!

I'd like to add #231 to the list of of small issues for the release of :)

[yfukai]

Thanks! Then I'd also assign #202 and #192 to myself.

[yfukai]

#260 will finalize #192!

[yfukai]

Hi @JoOkuma and @TeunHuijben, I'm sorry I wasn't able to address the regionprop issues. I opened PRs that resolve issues, except those related to regionprops and #194!

[yfukai]

I somehow finished working on the struct-type fields #268 which partially solves #194.

[yfukai]

Hi @JoOkuma @TeunHuijben, I updated the list for tasks before the release. I believe most are done, and currently, three PRs are (I believe) done but not merged. I'd be happy to work a bit more to finalize the remaining three PRs in a week, and if those are merged and we merge the bugfix PRs, I believe the package is ready for release!

Also tagging @cmalinmayor. Please let me know if I'm missing another thread of work toward the release!

[cmalinmayor]

Thanks @yfukai ! I'll discuss with Jordao and Teun as they are at Janelia next week, and see if I have anything to add, or if I can help with anything!

[yfukai]

Wonderful, I hope you all will enjoy the reunion! I believe my open PRs are all ready.

[yfukai]

I'm happy to see that the largest PR, #268, is now merged! There are small but imprtant chunks of work remaining (particularly #304). I will work on them to finalize the package before release.

Sorry, I'm currently super busy and have to put my hands off from this project for 2 weeks... I'll come back in the first week of July.
