Note: scikit-bio is currently under active development and its API is not stable. Major compatibility-breaking API changes will likely happen as development progresses. Once the API has started to solidify and we have an official release, we will strive to maintain backwards compatibility, provide deprecation warnings, etc. wherever possible. In the meantime, feel free to try out scikit-bio and let us know what you think!
