SimPEG 0.14.2 Release Notes
===========================

July 21st, 2020

This release contains some bug fixes that have cropped up since the last release,
as well as a few additions from some new contributors!

New Things
==========

@ikding was kind enough to add in more predefined EM waveforms: the
``SimPEG.electromagnetics.time_domain.source.TriangularWaveform`` and
``SimPEG.electromagnetics.time_domain.source.HalfSineWaveform``.


Changes
=======

The defaults solvers located in ``SimPEG.utils.solver_utils`` will now accept arbitrary
unused kwargs when wrapping a solver. It will warn the user that a kwarg will be unused.
This should allow us to set method specific solver options that wont break the
default solvers when they are not used.


Bugs Squashed
=============

We unfortunately allowed a small bug in the ``drape_electrodes_to_topography`` function
in the last release. This should now work properly for 3D ``discretize.TensorMesh`` again.

There was also a syntax error in ``SimPEG.electromagnetics.frequency_domain.sources.RawVec_m``
that was identified and fixed.

There were also typos fixed, type checks were converted to ``isinstance`` checks instead,
we updated the contributing guide to point towards the discourse group, and we've added
a few more authors to the list.
