v0.9.1

2022-02-15

This release provides partial backward compatibility to the 0.8 series. The 0.9.0 release introduced restrictions on positional arguments to many functions, requiring parameters to be passed by keyword arguments instead. In 0.9.1, positional parameters now trigger warnings instead of errors, so 0.8-compatible code should work again.

Additional changes:
