From [email protected]@21:1/5 to All on Sat Oct 17 20:44:31 2020

After a nearly year-long alpha and beta phase, Webware for Python 3.0.0 has been released today.

Here are all the important links:

GitHub: https://github.com/WebwareForPython/w4py3
PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/Webware-for-Python/
Documentation: https://webwareforpython.github.io/w4py3/

List of changes: https://webwareforpython.github.io/w4py3/changes.html Mirgration guide: https://webwareforpython.github.io/w4py3/migrate.html

The main improvements and changes in Webware for Python 3 are:

- Python 3.6 or newer instead of Python 2
- Standard packaging and installation
- Entry points for Webware plug-ins
- WSGI instead of app server and adapters
- Sphinx/ReadTheDocs for documentation
- GitHub Actions to run improved test suite

The WebKit plug-in has been promoted to the top level and does not exist anymore as a separate plug-in. PSP is still supported.
MiddleKit has become an external plug-in now, available at: https://github.com/WebwareForPython/w4py3-middlekit

Let me know if there are any pain points, bugs or other problems.
You can use GitHub issues, pull requests or the webware mailing list for feedback and sending bug reports or improvements.
