Contributions

[ECC-924] - GRIB2: Add support for encoding AROME and ALADIN fields
Thanks to MeteoFrance

New Features/Improvements

[ECC-815] - Separate the Python bindings to a different package
For Python 3 we no longer use SWIG. Please install the Python3 bindings by: pip3 install eccodes-python.
We are grateful to B-Open for their help.
Note: Python 2 is unaffected (it is still SWIG based)
[ECC-240] - bufr_dump should be able to dump a given subset
A new option "-S" is provided for bufr_dump to dump a given subset
[ECC-932] - bufr_dump: Add option to print expanded descriptors along with their keys and units
A new option "-d" is provided for bufr_dump to dump the expanded descriptors
[ECC-342] - BUFR: Implement extraction of a time interval for uncompressed data
[ECC-913] - Tools: Add gts_count
[ECC-925] - Remove the tool bufr_index_build
[ECC-600] - Implement grib_find_nearest for rotated lat/lon grids

[ECC-877] - Create new S2S ocean parameter Mean sea water temperature in upper 300 m
[ECC-909] - Add a key monthlyVerificationTime in all monthly streams

[ECC-890] - CAMS GRIB parameters required for 46r1 CAMS o-suite
[ECC-897] - Add GRIB edition 2 representation to 8 vegetation/biomass parameters
[ECC-898] - GRIB: Neural network soil moisture data
[ECC-920] - Add WMO GRIB2 to the existing "tpg" parameters and backward compatibility GRIB1 to the new ones
[ECC-921] - Add backward compatibility GRIB1 to 10fgg10
[ECC-926] - bufr_compare should fail if passed index files
[ECC-927] - Update BUFR tables with the latest WMO version 32.0.0
[ECC-934] - GRIB2: Remove local ECMWF encodings
[ECC-943] - Add WMO definition to S2S ocean parameter Sea surface practical salinity 151219
[ECC-770] - Update GRIB2 definitions with the latest WMO V23.0.0 code tables/templates

[ECC-846] - grib_to_netcdf slow for high resolution data
[ECC-888] - GRIB performance: remove GRIB1-specific keys from GRIB2
[ECC-930] - GRIB: Reduce size of reduced lat/lon sample files by removing bitmap section
[ECC-931] - bufr_dump -p: print the key 'subsetNumber' (uncompressed data)
[ECC-933] - Update parameters 172142, 172143, 172228
[ECC-907] - Key required to inquire whether a reduced Gaussian grid is '"legacy"

Bug Fixes
