Hi everyone, here's a Twisted release to hopefully lift your spirits a little. It's not a big one, but it's got some goodies regardless.
It features:
- The ability to use "python -m twisted" to call the new `twist` runner, - More reliable tests from a more reliable implementation of some things, like IOCP, - Fixes for async/await & twisted.internet.defer.ensureDeferred, meaning it's getting closer to prime time! - ECDSA support in Conch & ckeygen (which has also been ported to Python 3), - Python 3 support for Words' IRC support and twisted.protocols.sip among some smaller modules, - Some HTTP/2 server optimisations, - and a few bugfixes to boot!
You can get the tarball and the NEWS file at https://twistedmatrix.com/Releases/rc/16.6.0rc1/ https://twistedmatrix.com/Releases/rc/16.6.0rc1/ , or you can try it out from PyPI:
python -m pip install Twisted==16.6.0rc1
Please test it, and let me know how your applications fare, good or bad! If nothing comes up, I will release 16.6.0 next week.
