Hi everyone,

I've yet to hear back from anyone testing the prerelease - if you're 
able to, please do!

Especially of interest to be tested would be the new HostnameEndpoint, 
which tries to connect to both the IPv4 and IPv6 addresses from a DNS 
lookup, and uses whichever is first - it makes Glyph excited for its 
inclusion, so it ought to make you ;) .

It also supports SSL chain certificates, which should also fix up some 
issues using TLS with Twisted - this would also be great for people to 
test, and will hopefully remove a bunch of monkeypatching in everyone's 
code.

Unless there are problems brought to our attention, it is unlikely that 
the 13.2.0pre will be different from the final release - so you can also 
use it to run against your application's test suites, so you know you're 
ready for upgrading to the full release later. :)

The tarballs and NEWS file are available at 
http://twistedmatrix.com/Releases/pre/13.2.0pre1/ .

The ticket for the 13.2 release is at 
https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/6795 - please comment on it if you 
have any issues!
