The previous stable release of Tahoe-LAFS was v1.15.0, released on
January 19, 2021.
March 23rd, 2021.
In this release: PyPI does not accept uploads of packages that use
PEP-508 version specifiers.
The major change in this release is the completion of the Python 3
port -- while maintaining support for Python 2. A future release will
remove Python 2 support.
Note that Python3 porting is underway but not yet complete in this
release. Developers may notice python3 as new targets for certain
tools.
The previously deprecated subcommands "start", "stop", "restart" and
"daemonize" have been removed. You must now use "tahoe run" (possibly
along with your favourite daemonization software).
Several features are now removed: the Account Server, stats-gatherer
and FTP support.
There are several dependency changes that will be interesting for
distribution maintainers.
As well 196 bugs have been fixed since the last release.
Please see ``NEWS.rst`` for a more complete list of changes.
