    Hi All,

    On behalf of the NumPy team, I'm pleased to announce the release of NumPy 2.2.0rc1. The NumPy 2.2.0 release is a short release that brings us back
    into sync with the usual twice yearly release cycle. There have been a
    number of small cleanups, as well as work bringing the new StringDType to completion and improving support for free threaded Python. Highlights are:

    - New functions `matvec` and `vecmat`, see below.
    - Many improved annotations.
    - Improved support for the new StringDType.
    - Improved support for free threaded Python
    - Fixes for f2py

    This release supports Python 3.10-3.13. Wheels can be downloaded from PyPI <https://pypi.org/project/numpy/2.2.0rc1>; source archives, release notes,
    and wheel hashes are available on Github <https://github.com/numpy/numpy/releases/tag/v2.2.0rc1>.

    Cheers,

    Charles Harris
