+==============================
+PyWavelets 0.5.2 Release Notes
+==============================
+
+PyWavelets 0.5.2 is a bug-fix release with no new features compared to 0.5.1.
+
+
+Bugs Fixed
+==========
+
+The ``pywt.data.nino`` data reader is now compatible with numpy 1.12. (#273)
+
+The ``wp_scalogram.py`` demo is now compatibile with matplotlib 2.0. (#276)
+
+Fixed a sporadic segmentation fault affecting stationary wavelet transforms of
+multi-dimensional data. (#289)
+
+``idwtn`` now treats coefficients set to None to be treated as zeros (#291).
+This makes the behavior consistent with its docstring as well as idwt2.
+Previously this raised an error.
+
+The tests are now included when installing from wheels or when running
+``python setup.py install``. (#292)
+
+A bug leading to a potential ``RuntimeError`` was fixed in ``waverec``.
+This bug only affected transforms where the data was >1D and the transformed
+axis was not the first axis of the array. (#294).
