On behalf of Twisted Matrix Laboratories, I am honoured to announce the =
release of Twisted 16.3.0.

The highlights of this release are:

- The Git migration has happened, so we've updated our development =
documentation to match. We're now trialling accepting pull requests at =
github.com/twisted/twisted, so if you've ever wanted an excuse to =
contribute, now's the chance!
- In our steady shedding of baggage, twisted.spread.ui, twisted.manhole =
(not to be confused with twisted.conch.manhole!), and a bunch of old and =
deprecated stuff from twisted.python.reflect and twisted.protocols.sip =
have been removed.
- twisted.web's HTTP server now handles pipelined requests better -- it =
used to try and process them in parallel, but this was fraught with =
problems and now it processes them in series, which is less surprising =
to code that expects the Request's transport to not be buffered (e.g. =
WebSockets). There is also a bugfix for HTTP timeouts not working in =
16.2.
- Twisted now has HTTP/2 support in its web server! This is currently =
not available by default -- you will need to install hyper-h2, which is =
available in the [h2] setuptools extras. If you want to play around with =
it "pip install twisted[h2]" (on Python 2, a bugfix release will make it =
available on Python 3) and add "h2" to your Site's acceptableProtocols.
- 53 tickets closed overall, including cleanups that move us closer to a =
total Python 3 port.

For more information, check the NEWS file (link provided below).

You can find the downloads at <https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Twisted> (or =
alternatively <http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/wiki/Downloads>). The NEWS =
file is also available at =
<https://github.com/twisted/twisted/blob/twisted-16.3.0/NEWS>.

Many thanks to everyone who had a part in this release - the supporters =
of the Twisted Software Foundation, the developers who contributed code =
as well as documentation, and all the people building great things with =
Twisted!

Twisted Regards,
Amber Brown (HawkOwl)
