Here I'm incrementing the version to 0.8.0, in anticipation of a new release (we closed all of the issues for v0.8, hurray!).

Also, I've changed the way that the O2-ANU1024.txt.bz2 file is loaded. I'm not too excited about how this makes the examples more complicated, but I'm not sure what the easier solution is. Perhaps we can just use a text file, but then the file becomes several MB. Alternatively, we could make the file a PNG, but then @stggh would need to accept some degradation of his beautiful image.

Any other ideas?

Your solution is fine. The best solution is to drop support for Python2.7 which has EOL 2020. ;-)

It would save a great deal of baggage, while allowing the use of some very neat Python3.6+ features, such as f-strings

That's interesting about the f-strings! Being a loyal Py2 user, I hadn't heard of them :).

But you are right, Py2 is supposed to be phased out soon. Perhaps we should switch to Py2-only in v0.9 or v1.0. In the meanwhile, I'll open a new Issue where we can keep track of all of simplification that we can make when we switch to Py3 only.

Alright, if there are no objections, I'll go ahead and merge and make the release!
