Hi all,
We are pleased to announce the issue of the first release candidate for
3.7.0. Please test widely so that we may correct any bugs before the
final release.
Pre-built wheels are available for most major platforms, and can be
installed using `pip install matplotlib==3.7.0rc1`. Other packages may
also be available already; please check with your preferred source.
The 3.7.0 release candidate represents the work of 107 authors over 380 pull requests, and we thank them for their contributions.
