Are there release notes anywhere?
Apologies if I've missed an obvious link but I couldn't find anything that tells me what's changed with each new release. In particular, the jump from 4.x to 5.x suggests a backwards incompatible change somewhere but I don't know what this might be.
By the way, thanks for releasing this project. It's great and we use it quite heavily for OpenPrescribing.net: https://github.com/ebmdatalab/openprescribing/
Nope. Git log is your best bet.
Did a quick look myself and I think version 5 dropped testing for Python 2 and a bunch of Python 2 APIs.
Btw, thanks for the kind words! How do you use it for Open Prescribing?

No worries. If it was just Python 2 support that caused the major version bump then that shouldn't affect us at all.

We were already using SQLite to store numpy matrices as serialized binary blobs. It's a slightly odd approach that works very well for our use case (more detail here). But these were pre-built read-only SQLlite files. I wondered if we could do something similar with cached data and went searching around and found your project which exactly fit the bill. You can see how happy I was in the commit that introduced it!

You're welcome! I'm afraid it hasn't had a lot of love after the past year :(
