On behalf of the Twisted contributors, I announce the release
of Twisted 23.8.0

Thank you for kicking off yet another successful release, Adi!

This is a release that adds support for Python 3.12
This is also the last release with support for Python 3.7

It occurs to me that we may need a process for updating https://twisted.org/, since the website currently contains the phrase "It supports CPython 3.6+ and PyPy3. Twisted 21.2.0 was the last version with Python 3.5 support. Twisted 20.3.0 was the last version with Python 2.7 and PyPy2 support."

The release and NEWS file is available for review at

    https://github.com/twisted/twisted/blob/stable/NEWS.rst

Release documentation is available at

    https://docs.twisted.org/en/stable/

Wheels for the release candidate are available on PyPI

   https://pypi.org/project/Twisted/23.8.0/

   python -m pip install Twisted==23.8.0

Many thanks to everyone who had a part in Twisted development,
the supporters of the Twisted project,
the developers, and all the people testing and building great things
with Twisted!

I would like to use this opportunity and thank https://thinkst.com/ for the extraordinary continuous financial support since 2018.

I would also like to thank the Python Software Foundation and Phyllis Dobbs for their help in reviving the Twisted fiscal host.

You can also help the Twisted development by donating via PSF using this link

Slava Ukraini!

I am super excited about our new fiscal sponsorship from the PSF, and really grateful for all their help, particularly from Phyllis, with the transfer.  We haven't posted a lot about it because we're still working on the details but I hope we'll have more for y'all soon.

If you'd like to take a role in governance (i.e.: "figuring out how to spend Twisted's money to make Twisted better") feel free to speak up!
