[Twisted-Python] Twisted 16.2.0pre1 Release Announcement
Hi everyone! Time for another Twisted prerelease! Our release cadence stays steady, and this prerelease should bring some new nice features! The highlights include: - twisted.protocols.haproxy.proxyEndpoint, a wrapper endpoint that gives some extra information to the wrapped protocols passed by haproxy; - Migration of twistd and other twisted.application.app users to the new logging system (twisted.logger); - Porting of parts of Twisted Names' server to Python 3; - The removal of the very old MSN client code and the deprecation of the unmaintained ICQ/OSCAR client code; - More cleanups in Conch in preparation for a Python 3 port and cleanups in HTTP code in preparation for HTTP/2 support; - Over thirty tickets overall closed since 16.1. For more information, check the NEWS file (link provided below). As usual, it's available for download -- go here (https://twistedmatrix.com/Releases/pre/16.2.0pre1/) to get the prerelease tarballs and the full NEWS file. Please let me know if you have any issues, as well as if you don't! If everything works well, that's a good thing for me to know :) Twisted Regards, Amber Brown (HawkOwl)

As you're expressing gratitude, I'd like to take the opportunity to remind everyone that gratitude sometimes takes the form of US dollars, which you can donate to the Twisted project on the front page of https://twistedmatrix.com/ :). I periodically holler about fundraising, but as all this successful infrastructure work has been landing it would be a real shame if we had a big outage because we ran out of money to pay our current infrastructure provider. (We are working on moving to donated hosting but, as always, system administration resources are the thing we have the least of.) -glyph
