On behalf of Twisted Matrix Laboratories, I am honoured to announce the release 
of Twisted 16.1!

This release is hot off the heels of 16.0 released last month, including some 
nice little tidbits. The highlights include:

- twisted.application.internet.ClientService, a service that maintains a 
persistent outgoing endpoint-based connection -- a replacement for 
ReconnectingClientFactory that uses modern APIs;
- A large (77% on one benchmark) performance improvement when using 
twisted.web's client on PyPy;
- A few conch modules have been ported to Python 3, in preparation for further 
porting of the SSH functionality;
- Full support for OpenSSL 1.0.2f and above;
- t.web.http.Request.addCookie now accepts Unicode and bytes keys/values;
- `twistd manhole` no longer uses a hard-coded SSH host key, and will generate 
one for you on the fly (this adds a 'appdirs' PyPI dependency, installing with 
[conch] will add it automatically);
- Over eighteen tickets overall closed since 16.0.

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-16.1.0/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)
