This might even be suitable for maintenance releases of older versions, if anyone is using them.</li><li><<a href="http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/6245">http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/6245</a>> - This is a regression which affects anyone using twisted.names with 'unicode'-typed hostnames. This used to work, and, some of our own examples as well as some in-the-wild applications - mostly those using XMPP - actually relied upon it. IDNA hostnames never worked, but Python unicode-typed ASCII used to work and now it doesn't.</li></ul><div><br></div><div>Of course, in order to have a maintenance release with these bug fixes, several things need to happen.</div><div><br></div><div><ol class="MailOutline"><li>Someone needs to actually fix the issues. (I've written the code for #6275 but it is awaiting review; #6245 still needs to be fixed.)</li><li>Someone needs to back-port those fixes to a release branch, based on the 12.3.0 tag, and file tickets for those backports.</li><li>Someone needs to review the backports and get the committed to said branch.</li><li>Someone needs to volunteer to be the release manager for 12.3.0.</li></ol><div><br></div></div><div>We apparently don't have any official process documentation for doing patch releases, but most of what's in <<a href="http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/wiki/ReleaseProcess">http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/wiki/ReleaseProcess</a>> should apply.</div><div><br></div><div>Any volunteers for parts of this process?</div><div><br></div><div>-glyph</div><div><br></div></body></html>
