Think we should put this in (and maybe remove "`local_gaussian_method`" which was always a hack) - probably for `0.11.0`

See the discussion in #666 for why this (easy looking) thing is "stalled"

I think that `1.0.0` would be accompanied by a paper, yes. Having an agreed documentation strategy would be good too, I'll raise a discussion issue.

My feeling is that `1.0.0` is a huge undertaking, and we would be best to slowly improve the code base, all the while being more careful with our design decisions....

I am happy to contribute, will get #865 done as a first step. My only broad brush input would be that we should cut stale code fairly aggressively.

Yup, I'm in favour of a 0.15 and 1.0.0 at as close as feasibly possible to one another.

> Just another point that I would like to remove the io-utils code in favor of moving all of the loading/saving to [Hyperspy/rosettasciio](https://github.com/hyperspy/rosettasciio). The benefit is that that package can...

I suggest we now close this issue and create a small number of separate, 'getting it done' issues, eg: - Issues that need to be fixed by 1.0 - Code...

Yes. This is great news and when that code is released it should be top priority.

Patch release, yes, happy to be on the ball with this one to keep things smooth. As far as I can see the `0.13.x` branch is good to go.
