pandas-dev/pandas (original) (raw)

so we should put up a deprecation notice on rpyimports that in the future the user should use rpy2 directly rather than the less-supported pandas.rpy converters that we can take action say in 0.17.0

discussed extensivley in #7385

xref #7385, #9187 #7309, #8255

• Update the docs with some example of how to port your pandas examples to the rpy2 API -> done with DOC/DEPR: port pandas.rpy to rpy2 guide #10075
• Go over the functionality in pandas and check if some things should be ported to rpy2 (what still works better in pandas?)
  • Handling of NaN values (comment below: DEPR/DOC: rpy deprecation #9602 (comment))
  • index is not preserved in ri2py -> this should be handled in https://bitbucket.org/rpy2/rpy2/issues/285
• The closed PRs -> push them to rpy2?
