In this release, we fix a major bug that was preventing you guys from using the new module introduced in version 1.3: timeseries. We basically, forgot to add the __init__ file and for some reason, we did not pick up this error from our development environments. Thank you Brice for reporting this very important issue.

In addition, we updated our code base to work with the latest release of Scikit-learn (1.1.1) and pandas (1.4.2), which means that like Scikit-learn, we no longer support Python 3.7.

We are delaying the complete deprecation of MathematicalCombination, CombineWithFeatureReference, and CyclicalTransformer to our next release (1.5), as this release is a bit short notice, to give you more time to adapt your code bases.

In addition, we’ve added a new transformer, a number of new badges and made some enhancements to our code base.

I am very happy to announce that for this release, we had a number of contributions from first time contributors. Thank you so much for your support!

Thank you so much to all contributors to this release for making it possible!
