Notes
- 
conda build 2.0
* cmake seems to be having issue- Patch? the packages which need to be rebuilt with conda build 2.0 before switching all feedstocks to 2.0
 - conda-build-setup should have whitelist to do something else?
 - Only need to rebuild packages with short prefixes, shouldn't need to do anything special
 - Packages that need to be rebuilt conda forge/conda forge.github.io#171
 
 - 
conda & conda-env (conda-build?)
* conda-env is rolled into conda in recent versions, conda-env package now a placeholder- Need to pin older version of conda with conda-env<2.6 and newer version with conda-env > 2.6
 - Get rid of conda-env recipe?
 - Currently not building conda-build, need conda-build 2.0 to build
 
 - 
Travis CI VM changes
* Changed default OS X image to 10.11 with XCode 7.3- Fixed in conda-smithy by specifying what image to use
 - Travis will drop image at end of the month... we need a solution
 - Should look at new image and see if it meets our needs.
 - May need to set environment variable to continue to target 10.9, but may need to install own SDK
 - What versions of OS X are being used and what should we support? 10.9 good choice for minimum?
 - Enhancement proposal to outline how we manage changes to what we support (3.4, numpy 1.10, etc)
 - jpeg8 to jpeg9
 - Discuss on GitHub issue until 21st then decide.
 - Ray will try to get Anaconda.org usage stats.
