v12.8.3-alpha.2
Pre-release
v12.8.3-alpha.2 (2026-01-24)
This release is published under the MPL-2.0 License.
This is an experimental build that modernizes the internal package management to center on pyproject.toml, enabling support for several package managers including 'uv'. There should be no functional changes between this and the previous release, but developers/dependencies are welcome to test explicitly to ensure it does not break anything for them.
Features
Should not require any changes by developers or end users, but using something like mamba or uv will significantly reduce wait times when running things like tests/linters etc.
chore: refactor pyproject.toml, setup.cfg, setup.py with modern practices,
chore: tox testing is now uv-driven for speed and flexibility, - can test multiple python versions even if not installed, chore: transition dependencies/etc into pyproject.toml following modern python conventions,
docs: add a runbook covering how you can leverage this with uv package manager,
