Timeline for 3.5.8
by Larry Hastings 20 Sep '19

20 Sep '19

Howdy howdy. Here's what I'm thinking for the next release of 3.5. This week I'm going to merge / reject all the outstanding PRs for 3.5, then cut rc1 at the Python Core Dev sprints next week, either Monday (2019/9/9) or Tuesday (2019/9/10). This isn't a lot of notice, but things have slowed down a lot for 3.5, so I suspect nobody's going to be inconvenienced or bothered by the short notice. However! If you /would/ be inconvenienced or bothered by the short notice--if you need more time to get a patch in for 3.5--just let me know and I can delay rc1. Assuming no problems crop up in rc1, 3.5.8 final will be released two weeks after 3.5.8 rc1. Cheers, //arry/

Hey there, Python library maintainers! Python is looking into increasing its release cadence. You can read the current proposal here: https://python.org/dev/peps/pep-0602/ <https://python.org/dev/peps/pep-0602/> More importantly, we need your input. Read the PEP and please let us know what you think via this form: https://forms.gle/fA1FDhtna9sFnckk9 <https://forms.gle/fA1FDhtna9sFnckk9> Free-form discussion is happening here: https://discuss.python.org/t/pep-602-annual-release-cycle-for-python/2296/ <https://discuss.python.org/t/pep-602-annual-release-cycle-for-python/2296/> Thanks in advance, Ł Python 3.8 and 3.9 Release Manager

urllib request HTTPS memory leak?
by V-ron P 16 Sep '19

16 Sep '19

Hello Python Dev, One of my HTTPS servers leaked over 8 GB of memory over the past week. After troubleshooting the issue, I managed to narrow it down to the minimal test case below: https://gist.github.com/hydrogen-mvm/d588521c2138e0f98aa94b18e7dedfdb (Note that the 100 threads are not necessary, but they help exaggerate and accelerate the memory leaking.) The memory leak happens if I send a HTTPS request, regardless if it's GET or POST. The most bizarre part is the destination address does -not- need to exist and it still leaks! (In the script above it points to a non-existent HTTPS server on your localhost.) This leak does not happen for HTTP (plaintext) requests, which suggests that the bug might be SSL-related. My OS is Windows 7 and my Python version is: Python 3.7.4 (tags/v3.7.4:e09359112e, Jul 8 2019, 20:34:20) [MSC v.1916 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32 A friend of mine tested the script on his Windows 10 machine and also experienced the same memory leaking effect. Please confirm if this is in fact a bug in Python or this is a bug in my environment. Thanks.

Re: Spammy stuff (was Re: congrats on 3.5! Alas, windows 7 users are having problems installing it)

[Tim] > While python-dev has several "official" moderators, best I can tell > I'm the only one who has reviewed these messages for years. I should clarify that! That's not meant to be a dig at the other moderators. I review everything because I'm retired and am near the computer many hours almost every day. That's been so for at least a decade. So the others rarely get a chance - the queue is very likely empty if they ever look. After a few years of that, they may well stop looking ;-)

congrats on 3.5! Alas, windows 7 users are having problems installing it
by Laura Creighton 15 Sep '19

15 Sep '19

webmaster has already heard from 4 people who cannot install it. I sent them to the bug tracker or to python-list but they seem not to have gone either place. Is there some guide I should be sending them to, 'how to debug installation problems'? Laura

Feature Request: Python Pipes: Incluye sspipe module
by Juan Telleria 14 Sep '19

14 Sep '19

Could sspipe module be included as part of Python's Standard Library? https://sspipe.github.io/ https://github.com/sspipe/sspipe https://pypi.org/project/sspipe/ sspipe allows to use syntax such as: from sspipe import p, px import numpy as np import pandas as pd ( np.linspace(0, pi, 100) | p({'x': px, 'y': np.sin(px)}) | p(pd.DataFrame) | px[px.x > px.y].head() | p(print, "Example 6: pandas and numpy support:\n", px) ) The issue in Python's Bug Tracker is: https://bugs.python.org/issue38052 Any Core Python Developer willing to support this PEP? Thank you, Juan Telleria

python3 -bb and hash collisions
by Daniel Holth 13 Sep '19

13 Sep '19

set([u"foo", b"foo]) will error because the two kinds of string have the same hash, and this causes a comparison. Is that correct?

Buildbot failures
by Victor Stinner 13 Sep '19

13 Sep '19

Hi, Many buildbot workers failed in the last 48 hours, it's likely related to higher activity caused by the core dev sprint currently running at London. Here are failures in random order. Can someone please have a look? I suggest to add comments to issues for collaboration. test__xxsubinterpreters: random failures on AMD64 FreeBSD CURRENT Shared 3.x https://bugs.python.org/issue38154 ERROR: test_extra_groups (test.test_subprocess.POSIXProcessTestCase) ERROR: test_group (test.test_subprocess.POSIXProcessTestCase) (group='nogroup') ERROR: test_user (test.test_subprocess.POSIXProcessTestCase) (user=65534) ERROR: test_user (test.test_subprocess.POSIXProcessTestCase) (user='nobody') https://bugs.python.org/issue36046#msg352265 AST change introduced tons of reference leaks https://bugs.python.org/issue38152 test_capi leaked [2, 2, 2] references, sum=6 https://bugs.python.org/issue38150 Victor

Hi, FYI Yury Selivanov just proposed PEP 603 which is now discussed at: https://discuss.python.org/t/pep-603-adding-a-frozenmap-type-to-collections… PEP-603: Adding a frozenmap type to collections https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0603/ I don't have a strong preference between python-dev or discuss.python.org to discuss PEPs, but it would be nice to send at least a notice on python-dev when a discussion on a PEP is started on discuss.python.org. Previously, almost all PEPs were posted to python-dev (except maybe packaging PEPs). Note : I like this PEP, but let's discuss it there ;-) Victor
