New release?

[jonas-eschle]

First of all, thanks for maintaining and keeping this repo up-to-date! I've noticed that there was no new release since 2021, can there be a new release to include bug fixes and maybe drop Python 3.7?

A new release for which Python package? This repo is just the source code — it's not the Conda package or whatever you are thinking of.

My bad! I meant a new release, i.e. past the 2.7.1. The python and conda packages, afai see, follow the release cycle here

I'd be interested in a new C++ release (2.7.2 or whatever it might be). Do you have any idea when that might happen?

I also thank you for this package and its maintenance, it's been really helpful to me as I learn about optimisation. Along with @jonas-eschle I would also like a new release and corresponding release on PyPI. My main reason for this is that I appear to be experiencing #552, and I'm keen to know if it is fixed in the new release. If converged solutions have violated constraints, I can't use them!

If I can help with the release process, please let me know. Thank you again for your great work here.

I should be pushing out a new release (of the main nlopt package) in the next day or two (once #561 is merged).

Great, thanks a lot!
