• Twisted 21.2.0 Release Announcement

    From Craig Rodrigues@21:1/5 to All on Sun Feb 28 10:37:26 2021
    On behalf of Twisted Matrix Laboratories, I am honored to announce the
    release of Twisted 21.2.0!

    There are two major announcements for this release:

    - Python 2.7 support has been dropped. Twisted 21.2.0 supports Python 3.5.3 and higher only
    - This will be the last Twisted release to support Python 3.5.

    Twisted 21.2.0 brings the following:
    - twist dns --pyzone now works on Python 3
    - twisted.web.twcgi now works on Python 3
    - all tests pass on all platforms on Python 3.8, including asyncio tests on Windows
    - tests pass on Python 3.9 (thanks to Michał Górny)
    - type hints, as specified in PEP 484, are now used in functions throughout the codebase
    - mypy (static type checker) is now run over the codebase during CI to help detect problems, and help improve the use of types
    - code in is now formatted with Black (thanks to Tom Most)
    - many CI and automation improvements (thanks to Adi Roiban and Thomas Grainger)
    - many more fixes (225 tickets closed!)
