This is a bugfix release, with a few feature improvements in internals:

  • AstroResponse has been removed, which means that all cached objects will have
    new hashes. You should clear your cache: for most users, that means
    rm -r ~/.astropy/cache/astroquery/ (#418)
  • In ESO and ALMA, default to not storing your password. New keyword
    store_password=False. (#415)
  • In ESO, fixed a form activation issue triggered in ESO retrieve_data(),
    updated file download link triggered by server side change.
    More interesting, made username optional in login():
    instead, you can now configure your preferred username.
    Finally, automatic login is now used by retrieve_data(), if configured. (#420, #427)
  • Bugfix for UKIDSS: Login now uses the correct session to retrieve the data
    (#425)
  • ALMA - many new features, including selective file retrieval. Fixes many errors that
    were unnoticed in the previous version (#433)
  • ALMA - add help method and pass payload keywords on correctly. Validate
    the payload before querying. (#438)
