In Carley's words: 'The DVWG is always looking for more help testing and developing, I'm more than happy to walk through how to test or review code from students/staff new to SuperDARN and python. If anyone is interested in helping out with development of pyDARN and/or pyDARNio, let me or one of the DVWG chairs know!
Thanks to all involved in the development of our new release,
Special thanks to Emma Bland, we wish you all the best in Australia!'
