v1.2.0

API Changes

• Registry functions moved to the top-level namespace:

  • sncosmo.registry.register() -> sncosmo.register()
  • sncosmo.registry.register_loader() -> sncosmo.register_loader()
  • sncosmo.registry.retrieve() -> deprecated, use class-specific functions such as sncosmo.get_bandpass().

  The old import paths will still work, so this is backwards compatible.

Enhancements

• nest_lc() now uses the nestle module under the hood. A new
  keyword method is available which selects different sampling
  methods implemented by nestle. The new methods provide potential
  efficiency gains.
• The MLCS2k2 model is now available as a built-in Source, with the
  name 'mlcs2k2'.
• Bandpasses from the Carnegie Supernova Project added to built-ins.
• In realize_lcs(), a new scatter keyword makes adding noise
  optional.

In addition, there have been several minor bug fixes and
documentation improvements.
