Version 1.5.0 of your favorite Python library for reading and writing classic GIS raster data is on PyPI now. Since Jan 5, in fact.

Among other new features, this version adds support for 16-bit floating point raster data, and HTTP cache control. Please See the release notes for a full list of bug fixes, new features, and other changes.

Once again, major credit goes to Alan Snow for managing this release. Thanks, Alan!
