Ben Alterman | A benefit of Pandas I can't overlook is the easy of debugging. As tabular and labelled data, I can print the results of test cases and actually visually inspect them. I've got no idea how we would do that with xarray. | 21:21:39 |
@namurphy:matrix.org | Those are good points | 21:23:26 |

@namurphy:matrix.org | On the PyHC call today, Erik Grimes mentioned having put in a NASA HDEE proposal on ways to represent distribution functions. We should definitely talk. | 20:36:03 |
@dstansby:matrix.org | ah cool! | 20:37:40 |
@dstansby:matrix.org | I haven't heard the name before (and google isn't helping much), what sort of area is he in? | 20:38:42 |

@namurphy:matrix.org | I think he was working on PySPEDAS, but I might be misremembering. | 20:47:18 |
@dstansby:matrix.org | Ah yes, a quick adsabs search reveals that is true | 20:47:54 |
@namurphy:matrix.org | Come to think of it, Eric and I did talk briefly about this at the last PyHC meeting. | 20:49:03 |

Cadair | Hey | 13:58:41 |
Cadair | dstansby if you want to relicence you really need sign off by everyone who has contributed | 14:02:18 |
@dstansby:matrix.org | hello | 14:05:14 |
@dstansby:matrix.org | okay | 14:05:46 |
Cadair | x-ref for conxtet | 14:06:13 |
@dstansby:matrix.org | thanks - I'll look into it, I didn't realise that in practice GPL-3 had these issues | 14:06:44 |
Cadair | it's a great licence, but given most of the scipy ecosystem is BSD (for good or ill) it makes it difficult to collaborate | 14:07:30 |
Cadair | the gpl is the main reason we haven't released sunkit-image yet | 14:07:48 |
Cadair | because I haven't wrapped my head around it | 14:08:00 |
Cadair | We should schedule a session at the sunpy coordination meeting about the heliopy / sunpy integration | 14:19:24 |
@dstansby:matrix.org | In reply to @cadair:cadair.com We should schedule a session at the sunpy coordination meeting about the heliopy / sunpy integration yes, good idea | 14:25:11 |
Cadair | and then consider how we are finding the money / time to work on it 😁 | 14:36:40 |
@namurphy:matrix.org | A while back, I asked a friend who is extremely active in the open source community about which open source license should be used for PlasmaPy. Her suggestion was to use the license that was most commonly used in the community we were working in. Since Astropy and SunPy are BSD 2-clause or 3-clause, that's what we originally ended up going with. | 20:41:17 |
@namurphy:matrix.org | And it's super exciting to hear prospects for heliopy/sunpy integration! | 20:42:48 |
@dstansby:matrix.org | Yes - it's been floating around in the back of my mind for a bit actually. If we can get the one-liner data loading working in SunPy, then I think that would remove one of my biggest personal blockers to integration | 20:52:07 |
@dstansby:matrix.org | having a one stop shop for remote and in-situ data would be amazing | 20:53:16 |
