Dear *,

I am pleased to announce the immediate availability of Numba 0.57.1rc1 – this is the first release candidate for the 0.57.1 patch release.

The (preliminary) change-log can be found at:

As always, the conda packages can be installed using:

$ conda install -c numba numba=0.57.1rc1

And the wheel using pip with:

Please do test these versions with your application and/or library and report back any issues encountered on this Discourse thread. Thank you for using Numba!

Ping @RC_Testers – some artifacts for you to test.

I’ve tested 0.57.1rc1 with cuDF branch-23.08 and all appears well.
