0.12 release planning

[djc]

@GuillaumeGomez is asking when we can next release. Is there anything still in flight that we should merge first?

I know there's i18n (#700) which would be nice to move forward, but (a) that feels like it still needs a bunch of work, (b) it's maybe not breaking compat? Looks like we should also merge #632, potentially #668.

@Kijewski @vallentin any thoughts?

[GuillaumeGomez]

Thanks for pinging me. If you need help on something, don't hesitate to ask me!

[djc]

#668 has been addressed. We should also get #723 in.

Edit: okay, we get #632 too.

Hi, any update on the release? Is something holding it back?

[djc]

I guess the next step is to write up release notes.

[mo8it]

Any news about a new release? I currently use git but a release would be much appreciated :) The last one is from 2021.

Thanks!

[djc]

I've drafted some release notes, any feedback?

0.12.0

After 13 months of development, we're happy to announce the 0.12.0 release of Askama, the type safe, compiled Jinja-like template engine for Rust. For this release, @Kijewski contributed most of the changes -- @vallentin and @djc are the other team members. This releases comes with integrations for Actix-Web 4, Axum 0.6, Gotham 0.7, hyper 0.14, Tide 0.16 and Warp 0.3. We removed our Iron integration, since this framework no longer seems to be actively maintained.

👍

[Kijewski]

Thank you! Looks good to me!

[couchand]

Note the title of #677 does not appear accurate, might be worth correcting for the release notes?

[djc]

Why do you not think it's accurate?

[djc]

I've released it.

[couchand]

Why do you not think it's accurate?

The PR is titled "Merge askama_derive into askama" but it appears to be about merging askama_shared into askama.

[djc]

Fair enough, I changed the title in the release notes.
