Could someone please create a release? This will fix https://github.com/pydata/pandas-datareader/issues/970 .

I hesitate to release as many (most?) of the readers are broken. There isn't much of a community willing to support the individual readers, which need relatively high-frequency fixes. This is why datareader was removed from pandas - it was creating a huge burden on core developers to constantly adjust the readers, as well as when running CI jobs.

If someone would step up and start fixing readers it would make a new release easier.

There are test fails for the following readers:

  • IEX
  • Yahoo
  • Econdb
  • Fred
  • IEX
  • Bank of Canada
  • OECD

I sort of inherited this role, and while I'm content to provide technical coding (e.g., moving from versioneer to setuptools_scm for versioninig, which as been done), I am not interested in patching individual readers.
