On behalf of the Twisted contributors I announce the release candidate of Twisted 21.7.0
This is mostly a bugfix release.
*Python 3.5 is no longer a supported platform.* *The minimum supported platform is Python 3.6.7.*
The notable features are:
- Python 3.10 beta is now a supported platform. - twisted.web.template.renderElement() now accepts any IRequest implementer instead of only twisted.web.server.Request. Add type hints to twisted.web.template. (#10184)
The release and NEWS file is available for review at
https://github.com/twisted/twisted/pull/1614/files
Release candidate documentation is available at
https://twisted--1614.org.readthedocs.build/en/1614/
Wheels for the release candidate are available on PyPI
https://pypi.org/project/Twisted/21.7.0rc1/
python -m pip install Twisted==21.7.0rc1
Please test it and report any issues. If nothing comes up in 1 week, 21.7.0 will be released based on the latest release candidate.
Many thanks to everyone who had a part in Twisted - the supporters of the Twisted Software Foundation, the developers, and all the people testing and building great things with Twisted!
