Highlights
----------
This release is the result of 6 months of work with over 92 pull requests by
30 contributors. Highlights include:
- Dropped support for Python 2. We are no longer supporting Python 2.7 and we will
start changing code to take advantage of Python 3 features we couldn't before.
- Added some Moral Graph analysis functions.
- Enable matplotlib drawing using curved arrows via connectionstyle parameter.
- Remove ticks and axes labels from matplotlib plots.
- Two new generators of Harary Graphs.
- Added Dual Barabasi-Albert model
- Added VoteRank algorithm
- Added Equitable coloring algorithms
- Added planar layout algorithms
- Les Miserables network example
- Javascript example update
Improvements
------------
- Change default colors to be color-blind friendly
- Many bug fixes and documentation improvements
- Speed up of simple_cycles
- Improvements for reading various formats like GML, GEXF, Graphml
- Allow subclassing to access node_attr_dict_factory
API Changes
-----------
- The G.fresh_copy() mechanism for creating an empty_graph of the same
type (introduced in v2.0) does not playing nicely with pickle and others.
So, we have removed the code that caused a need for that. Instead you
should use the more natural G.__class__() syntax to get an empty_graph
of the same type as G.
Deprecations
------------
- The Graph.fresh_copy() method should now use Graph.__class__()
- ReverseView class removed in favor of reverse_view() function.
