Apparently we should be dropping NumPy 1.19 per https://numpy.org/neps/nep-0029-deprecation_policy.html#drop-schedule
Can anyone open a quick PR for this following #1675? I'm a little occupied right now...
maxrjones commentedon Jul 2, 2022
Thanks for noticing this! Done in #1985

Looks good!
weiji14 commentedon Jul 2, 2022
Looks nice, thanks for drafting this Max! I've made some tiny edits and added a screenshot of the new Exteranl Resources page too
Other than that, do we want to wait for the try-gmt issue at GenericMappingTools/try-gmt#39 (comment) to be resolved before making the forum announcement? I can try to handle the Twitter announcements later (might go for a hiking trip).
seisman commentedon Jul 4, 2022
I've posted the announcement in the forum (https://forum.generic-mapping-tools.org/t/3085).

Ok, the tweet has been made at https://twitter.com/gmt_dev/status/1543833232268857346. Who wants to close this off with the ResearchGate announcement? (which reminds me, we should add our new contributors to the ResearchGate page too).

Research gate announcement is done at https://www.researchgate.net/project/PyGMT-A-Python-interface-for-the-Generic-Mapping-Tools/update/62c2f702df58b43f605c4f54.
Thanks @seisman for leading this release! And the whole team for making it happen 🎉
