Hi all,

Some wheels and an sdist for rasterio 1.2a1 are on PyPI today. I'd appreciate some testing by adventurous folks.

The change log is behind the curve, but the new features are listed in https://github.com/mapbox/rasterio/pulls?q=is%3Apr+milestone%3A1.2.0+is%3Aclosed. There are still a few known bugs to be fixed and features to be finished before 1.2.0. For example, the merge tool will write to a file, but can't yet write datasets that are larger than your computer's memory can store.

Looking forward to feedback,
