Twisted 12.2.0 Released

On behalf of Twisted Matrix Laboratories, I am honored to announce the release of Twisted 12.2.

Highlights for this release include:

To be able to work on Python3 support, Python 2.5 is no longer supported.

• twisted.mail.imap4 now serves BODYSTRUCTURE responses which provide more information and conform to the IMAP4 RFC more closely.
• twisted.conch now supports commercial SSH implementations which don't comply with the IETF standard.
• twisted.internet.endpoints now provides several new endpoints, including aTCP client endpoint that resolves hostnames to IPv6 host addresses.
• IReactorSocket.adoptStreamConnection, implemented by some reactors, allows adding an existing established connection to the reactor.

Starting with the release after 12.2, Twisted will begin requiring Zope Interface version 3.6 or greater (as part of Python 3 support).

This is the last Twisted release supporting Python 2.6 on Windows.
