Hi,

I plan to act as a release manager for the next release and follow the plan documented at



I was previously working on releasing Twisted.  I was running into various roadblocks, but was moving forward,
and got permission from Glyph to move forward with this.
Has this changed?

If you want to do the release, I am more than happy to not have to do the release myself :)
 
Unfortunately, Amber did not respond to any e-mails that I sent to her and Glyph, so I tried to move forward the
best that I could.
  
Is there anything still blocking you ?
Can I help?



So no other tickets are in the blocker queue:

Do you know any other release blocker issues?


I filed this: 

which I found with Pierre Tardy's help by running buildbot's test suite against Twisted trunk.
This looks like a problem on the Twisted side, and should be fixed before a Twisted release is pushed out.

OK. I closed https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/10069 as I think it's a duplicate.

Do you or Pierre plan to fix that ticket?

I think that you should block the release only if someone is committed to fixing the release blocker.

I plan to update the release documentation to make it clear that all release blocker tichet
should have an owner and there are plans to fix the ticket in a maximum of 2 weeks.

Otherwise we risk to block the release forever... and if we delay forever people will start using "trunk"
and if everybody is using trunk, what is the point of a release :) ?

------

For the future, maybe we can stop doing a release candidate wheel and
instead just announce that a release is coming
and people should test trunk and flag any release blocker ticket.

I think that with pip, is now very easy to install Twisted from trunk.

Cheers
