An update on plans for 0.2:

Unit testing
-----------------

- Simplify unit testing with new assert_larry_equal function
- Unit test all larry methods for ability to handle empty larrys
- dtype unit test of all methods?
- Add unit tests for larry methods that don't have any

New features
-------------------

- swapaxes method
- panel function
- Add nd ability to the larry methods that currently only handle 2d input
- New ability to index by label? (I'll write a blueprint)
- Extend group methods to allow axis argument and 2d groups
