-2.5.0 (2006-12-29)
-==================
-
-Twisted 2.5.0 is a major feature release, with several interesting new
-developments and a great number of bug fixes. Some of the highlights
-follow.
-
- * AMP, the Asynchronous Messaging Protocol, was introduced.  AMP is
-   a protocol which provides request/response semantics over a
-   persistent connection in a very simple and extensible manner.
-
- * An Epoll-based reactor was added, which can be used with twistd or
-   trial by passing "-r epoll" on the command line. This may improve
-   performance of certain high-traffic network applications.
-
- * The 'twistd' command can now accept sub-commands which name an
-   application to run. For example, 'twistd web --path .' will start a
-   web server serving files out of the current directory. This
-   functionality is meant to replace the old way of doing things with
-   'mktap' and 'twistd -f'.
-
- * Python 2.5 is now supported. Previous releases of Twisted were
-   broken by changes in the release of Python 2.5.
-
- * 'inlineCallbacks' was added, which allows taking advantage of the
-   new 'yield' expression syntax in Python 2.5 to avoid writing
-   callbacks for Deferreds.
-
-In addition to these changes, there are many other minor features and
-a large number of bug fixes.
-
-Features
---------

-   about an error (#1399)

- - twistd can now make use of plugins to run applications (#1922, #2013)
- - Twisted now works with the latest (unreleased) zope.interface (#2160)
- - An epoll-based reactor, epollreactor, was added. It is selectable
-   with the -r options to twistd and trial (#1953)
- - twistd and trial now use the plugin system to find reactors which
-   can be selected (#719)
- - twisted.internet.defer.inlineCallbacks was added. It takes
-   advantage of Python 2.5's generators to offer a way to deal with
-   Deferreds without callbacks (#2100)
-

- - reactor.iterate calls made inside of a Trial test case are
-   deprecated (#2090)

-   separate project. See http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/wiki/QTReactor
-   (#2130, #2137)

-   only meant to help in writing other reactors (#2126)

-
-2.4.0 (2006-05-21)
-==================
-
-Features
---------

-
-
-2.3.0 (2006-05-14)
-==================
-
-Features
---------
- - twisted-dev-mode's F9 now uses trial's --testmodule feature, rather than
-   trying to guess what tests to run.  This will break files using the "-x"
-   test-case-name hack (just use a comma separated list instead).
- - API Documentation improvements.
- - A new Producer/Consumer guide (#53)
- - Better-defined error behavior in IReactorMulticast (#1578)
- - IOCP Multicast support (#1500)

-   of Version information, including support for SVN revision numbers
-   (#1663)
-
-Fixes
------
-
- - Many trial fixes, as usual 
- - All API documentation is now correctly formatted as epytext (#1545)
- - twisted.python.filepath.FilePath.__repr__ is safer.
- - Fix trial's "until-failure" mode. (#1453)
- - deferredGenerator now no longer causes handled exceptions (or
-   results) to propagate to the resulting Deferred (#1709).
- - Misc: #1483, #1495, #1503, #1532, #1539, #1559, #1509, #1538,
-   #1571, #1331, #1561, #737, #1562, #1573, #1594, #1607, #1407, #1615,
-   #1645, #1634, #1620, #1664, #1666, #1650, #1670, #1675, #1692, #1710,
-   #1668.
-
-Deprecations
-------------
-
- - Removal of already-deprecated trial APIs: the assertions module,
-   util.deferredResult, util.deferredError, util.fireWhenDoneFunc,
-   util.spinUntil, util.spinWhile, util.extract_tb,
-   util.format_exception, util.suppress_warnings, unittest.wait,
-   util.wait
- - The backwards compatibility layer of twisted.python.components
-   (e.g., backwardsCompatImplements, fixClassImplements, etc) has been
-   disabled. The functions still exist, but do nothing as to not break
-   user code outright (#1511)
- - Deprecate the usage of the 'default' argument as a keyword argument
-   in Interface.__call__. Passing a second positional argument to
-   specify the default return value of the adaptation is still
-   supported.
-

-     unittest timeout now have their errback fired with a TimeoutError

-   - Test suites are failed if there are import errors
-
-Fixes
------
- - iocpreactor fixes

-2.1.0 (2005-11-06)
-==================
-
-Features
---------
- - threadedselectreactor, a reactor which potentially makes
-   integration with foreign event loops much simpler.
- - major improvements to twisted.conch.insults, including many new widgets.
- - adbapi ConnectionPools now have 'runWithConnection' which is
-   similar to runInteraction but gives you a connection object instead of
-   a transaction. [975]
- - __file__ is now usable in tac files
- - twisted.cred.pamauth now contains a PAM checker (moved from twisted.conch)
- - twisted.protocols.policies.LimitTotalConnectionsFactory now exists,
-   which does as the name suggests
- - twisted.protocols.ident now uses /proc/net/tcp on Linux [233]
- - trial now recurses packages by default (a la the old -R parameter)
- - (PB) Calling a remote method that doesn't exist now raises
-   NoSuchMethod instead of AttributeError.
-
-Fixes
------
- - FTP client and server improvements
- - Trial improvements: The code is now much simpler, and more stable.
- - twisted.protocols.basic.FileSender now works with empty files 
- - Twisted should now be much more usable on Pythons without thread support.
- - minor improvements to process code in win32eventreactor
- - twistd -y (--python) now implies -o (--nosave). [539]
- - improved lockfile handling especially with respect to unix sockets.
- - deferredGenerator now no longer overuses the stack, which sometimes
-   caused stack overflows.
- - Failure.raiseException now at least always raises the correct Exception.
- - minor improvements to serialport code
-
-Deprecations
-------------
- - twisted.python.componts.getAdapter. Use IFoo(o) instead.
- - Adapter persistence (IFoo(x, persist=True)). Just don't use it.
- - log.debug. It was equivalent to log.msg(), just use that.
- - twisted.protocols.telnet. twisted.conch.telnet replaces it.
- - Setting a trial reporter using a flag to 'trial'. Instead of 'trial
-   --bwverbose', for example, use 'trial --reporter=bwverbose'.
- - trial --coverage will become a flag in Twisted 2.2.
- - passing a fully-qualified python name to --reporter is
-   deprecated. Pass only names of Reporter plugins.
- - trial --psyco.
- - trial -R (--recurse) is now the default, so passing it is deprecated.
- - trial --reporter-args. Use the plugin system to do this sort of thing.
- - trial.assertions.assertionMethod and trial.unittest.assertionMethod
-   are both deprecated. Use instance methods on TestCases instead.
- - trial's deferredResult, deferredError, and wait functions. Return
-   Deferreds from your test methods instead of using them.
- - Raising unittest.SkipTest with no arguments. Give a reason for your skip.
- - The Failure returned from a gatherResults and DeferredList is now
-   of type FirstError instead of a tuple of (Exception, index). It
-   supports a firstError[idx] syntax but that is deprecated. Use
-   firstError.subFailure and firstError.index instead.
- - whenThreaded now simply calls the passed function synchronously.

- - Removed some functions that were deprecated since Twisted 1.0.
- - ZSH tab-completion for twisted commands.
-
- - More correct daemonization in twistd.
