[Twisted-Python] pypy3 builds passing?
by Craig Rodrigues April 13, 2018

April 13, 2018

Hi, I just took a look at this: https://buildbot.twistedmatrix.com/builders/ubuntu16.04-pypy3/builds/27 running with: Python 3.5.3 (3f6eaa010fce, Jan 11 2018, 04:44:35) [PyPy 5.10.1 with GCC 6.2.0 20160901] Ran 12268 tests in 455.535s PASSED (skips=2240, successes=10028) Is that a fluke, or have we made good progress with pypy? -- Craig

[Twisted-Python] Mandatory HTTPS on twistedmatrix.com
by Mark Williams April 12, 2018

April 12, 2018

Hi all, twistedmatrix.com and its subdomains now redirect all HTTP requests to HTTPS. If the transition goes smoothly, I'll turn on HSTS (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_Strict_Transport_Security) next week. Please let me know if you notice any irregularities. -- Mark Williams mrw(a)enotuniq.org

[Twisted-Python] Problem with osx10.10-py2.7 builder
by Craig Rodrigues April 6, 2018

April 6, 2018

Hi, Can someone check this builder: https://buildbot.twistedmatrix.com/builders/osx10.10-py2.7 It is failing randomly in weird ways during builds. For example, in some cases it fails to install tox. In other cases, the tests terminate in some random spot. This builder is marked as "Required", so it is a bit annoying. -- Craig

[Twisted-Python] The Future of Twisted.News
by Amber Brown April 2, 2018

April 2, 2018

Hi all, I thought it would be a good time to raise the topic of twisted.news and its future in Twisted. Currently, t.news has below-Twisted standards of code coverage, implementation (with one huuuuge ad-hoc state machine), comments, tests, etc. It's also not had any changes to the bulk of its code for 14 years, apart from what appears to be code removal 6 years ago and a handful of "twisted-wide" mechanical syntax changes. It's also unlikely to ever be ported to Python 3 unless someone were to improve the former issues (since the port would require 100%-as-possible code coverage). I propose deprecating twisted.news on the condition that it doesn't have a maintainer, and un-deprecating it if a user of the code steps up to maintain it and brings it into line (vs one of the current development team taking on work keeping an ancient protocol on life support). If nobody steps up, then we remove it at the end of the deprecation period and encourage any remaining users to either pin to old Twisteds or simply vendor the code in their own codebase. The ticket I have created for this is at https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/9405 . - Amber
