The [vrad tutorial](http://halotools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/quickstart_and_tutorials/tutorials/catalog_analysis/galcat_analysis/basic_examples/velocity_statistics/galaxy_catalog_analysis_tutorial6.html) and [vdisp tutorial](http://halotools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/quickstart_and_tutorials/tutorials/catalog_analysis/galcat_analysis/basic_examples/velocity_statistics/galaxy_catalog_analysis_tutorial7.html) still do not contain anything about this new feature, nor do the docstrings, so the `normalize_rbins_by` feature is still mostly a hidden feature.

The mean occupation functions should have dedicated science-verification tests added prior to releasing v0.5

Defining scatter in an independent class is a bit convoluted because the functionality is so simple. After some experimenting with building models, reliance on this class does not really improve...

As requested by @sssaito to support work on ongoing project with @duncandc - we will need jackknife error estimates on the tpcf multipole calculations, which are currently only supported for...

To support ongoing work with @sssaito, and in analogy to mean radial velocity profiles and radial velocity dispersion profiles, include a new cython engine and user-facing convenience function to calculate...

After updating to astropy-helpers v2.0 in #788, there are now many warnings that appear during the test suite that will need to be resolved. Most seem to be `UnicodeWarning`, but...

This came up during the re-review of the code in #823, and should be implemented provided that Halotools models can be wrapped by `astropy.modeling` without a major overhaul of the...

Mostly this will only impact the halo catalog and merger tree dtype formatting.

The most common way to estimate errors in a MCF analysis is to repeatedly count marked pairs with scrambled marks. The current API makes this process very slow, because with...
