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;
Awesome.


- Migration of twistd and other twisted.application.app users to the new logging system (twisted.logger); 
More awesome.


- 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; 
Even more awesome.


- Over thirty tickets overall closed since 16.1. 


Awesomer still.

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,

Seriously, the progress over the last year has been fantastic.  As a long time Twisted user who takes far more than he gives, let me express my gratitude for all the great releases of the last 12 months.

Thanks,
