[python-committers] The PSF's new Code of Conduct and how it applies to Python's development

2019-10-02 Thread Brett Cannon
[this is being emailed out to python-committer and python-dev separately,
so apologies for those who get a duplicate email]

The steering council wanted to let everyone know that the PSF released a
new Code of Conduct which was announced at
https://pyfound.blogspot.com/2019/09/the-python-software-foundation-has_24.html
and that it applies to Python's development.

Specifically, this new Code of Conduct lists Python's development spaces
and those participating in those spaces as being under the CoC (we were
implicitly under the old CoC on PSF-sponsored and run infrastructure, but
now it's explicitly called out). So that means python-committers,
python-dev, python-ideas, everything on GitHub, discuss.python.org, core
dev sprints, PSF-sponsored conferences, etc. all fall under this CoC. The
steering council wanted to make sure people were aware of this new Code of
Conduct so no one was caught off-guard and to make sure people were aware
that it did apply to all of us. The steering council also supports this
Code of Conduct.

One other thing the steering council wanted to point out is that we believe
CoC violations should be reported directly to the Conduct WG as outlined at
https://www.python.org/psf/conduct/reporting/. The thinking is that since
we all know each other on the development team there's a good chance of a
conflict of interest if reports were to go to the steering council, and so
it's simpler to just advise people go straight to the Conduct WG (Carol and
I will recuse ourselves as appropriate since we are both on the Conduct WG).

I will also say that people have come to me personally in the past and
asked if something was a CoC violation, and going forward my answer will be
"report it to the Conduct WG and let them make that decision". Same goes
for incidents where people believe something is a CoC violation and they
want to report it to someone: let the Conduct WG know (which I have already
started telling people who come to me with CoC concerns).

[python-committers] [RELEASE] Python 3.7.5rc1 is now available for testing

2019-10-02 Thread Ned Deily
Python 3.7.5rc1 is now available for testing. 3.7.5rc1 is the release preview 
of the next maintenance release of Python 3.7, the latest feature release of 
Python. Assuming no critical problems are found prior to 2019-10-14, no code 
changes are planned between now and the final release. This release candidate 
is intended to give you the opportunity to test the new security and bug fixes 
in 3.7.5. We strongly encourage you to test your projects and report issues 
found to bugs.python.org as soon as possible. Please keep in mind that this is 
a preview release and, thus, its use is not recommended for production 
environments.

You can find the release files, a link to the changelog, and more information 
here:
https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-375rc1/
