Standarization

I know that it still doesn't build on GitLab CI -- due to a wrong version of Pillow (see #1 (closed)). Anyways, I think it is time to merge this branch and go on pushing a new version of bob.bio.csu to PyPI.

I know that this is not sufficient, but I have installed that package locally on my machine, and I was able to build and execute it. Nose tests are passing; I haven't checked the documentation, though.

Would it be possible for you to extend your patch to fix Pillow 3 issues too?

Unfortunately no. Pillow 2 is used inside the original CSU Face Recognition Resources (pyvision), which is now 4 years old. This code is not even part of this package, but stored in the PythonFaceEvaluation package: https://gitlab.idiap.ch/biometric/PythonFaceEvaluation which also include a patch to the original source code downloadable from http://www.cs.colostate.edu/facerec/algorithms/baselines2011.php

I have tried before to make this package Python 3 compatible, but I gave up at a certain point, as the modifications were major. I am afraid that this will be the same with Pillow 3.

I think, we can leave the package as it is -- it is not inside the nightlies anyways. It won't be part of any bob distribution either, and there is no need (and also no possibility, AFAIK) to have it on conda-forge. We have the requirement pillow<3 in the requirements.txt, so anyone who wants to install and use the package should be aware of that.

Status changed to merged

You would have to push this manually to PyPi.

OK, no problem. Do you think there might be any reason for my old bob_new_version.py script no to work anymore?

You have to try. It was written to work with Github and travis.
