Great! Yes - once this new version is rolled into astropy we will be able to remove the workarounds put in place.
When I read "new sofa", this is what crossed my mind:
Sorry for the off-topic post.
Reacted by Michael Seifert and Matt CraigWith the new
erfaversion merged (liberfa/erfa#35), I think it now explicitly needs to be included in astropy. @astrofrog, @eteq - I don't know how to go about that...@eteq, @astrofrog, I have lost track of where this is, but it seems astropy is not yet shipping with the new erfa, correct? We should have that in place before the next point release, as it includes a leap second...
Posting also on astropy as we should keep up to date and I'm not sure who's watching
liberfa-- it is relevant for the 2016-dec-31 leap second, as well as for changing the deflection of light near the sun -- it may be possible to remove the workarounds (cc @StuartLittlefair, @eteq).
