The Astropy Project: Building an Open-science Project and Status of the v2.0 Core Package* * The author list has three parts: the authors that made significant contributions to the writing of the paper in order of contribution, the four members of the Astropy Project coordination committee, and contributors to the Astropy Project in alphabetical order. Their position in the author list does not correspond to contributions to the Astropy Project as a whole. A more complete list of contributors to the core package can be found in the package repository and at the Astropy team webpage.

Abstract
The Astropy Project supports and fosters the development of open-source and openly developed Python packages that provide commonly needed functionality to the astronomical community. A key element of the Astropy Project is the core package astropy, which serves as the foundation for more specialized projects and packages. In this article, we provide an overview of the organization of the Astropy project and summarize key features in the core package, as of the recent major release, version 2.0. We then describe the project infrastructure designed to facilitate and support development for a broader ecosystem of interoperable packages. We conclude with a future outlook of planned new features and directions for the broader Astropy Project.
