Just in time for PyCon, the second prerelease is hot off the presses.
Tarballs for this prerelease can be found at
<http://twistedmatrix.com/Releases/pre/14.0.0pre2>, with the changelog
at <http://twistedmatrix.com/Releases/pre/14.0.0pre2/NEWS.txt>.
Changes from the previous prerelease include:
- Dropping support for Windows XP, due to XP being EOL.
- Dropping support for PyOpenSSL older than 0.10.
- Support for TLS Service Identity, in conjunction with the
service_identity library on PyPI.
Thanks!
I haven't yet done any serious testing of this prerelease but I did
import some modules from it and I think this is pretty embarassing:
import twisted.internet.ssl
/home/exarkun/Projects/Twisted/trunk/twisted/internet/_sslverify.py:119:
UserWarning: You do not have the service_identity module installed.
Please install it from <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/service_identity>.
Without the service_identity module and a recent enough pyOpenSSL
tosupport it, Twisted can perform only rudimentary TLS client
hostnameverification. Many valid certificate/hostname mappings may be
rejected.
verifyHostname, VerificationError = _selectVerifyImplementation()
This is a warning that just about every Twisted user is going to see and
it's confusing (_sslverify.py? what?) and poorly formatted.

For more information and a full list of changes, check the NEWS.txt
file.
Please download the tarballs and test them with your applications, so
we can make sure we’re all ready for release!
