@Carreau @takluyver I am ready to cut a release! Let me know if there is anything else we should do before....

[Carreau]

I would just send a mail to the mailing list warning that it's their last change to complain.

Or just do it. We can still do 4.3.1 if things go south.

[gnestor]

I think we should call it for this release and not accept any more commits and then we can always release patches and potentially another minor release before 5.0. I assume that this release will require a blog post? We can share the blog post with the mailing list once it's live.

Do you know how to test a wheel and an sdist locally?

[Carreau]

Yes, you can just pip install <path to wheel> or <path so sdist>, technically <path to sdist> now build a wheel and install the wheel if possible.

[gnestor]

Ok, that worked, although I'm not sure if I'm testing the wheel now or my dev install... How can I tell?

It looks like don't have push privileges for notebook on PyPI:

HTTPError: 403 Client Error: You are not allowed to upload to 'notebook'. for url: https://upload.pypi.org/legacy/

Can you give me permissions?

[rgbkrk]

Added @gnestor on PyPI

[gnestor]

@Carreau Ok, I've done everything except upload to PyPI and push the tag to GH. Would you like to have the honors of uploading and I'll push the tag after it's uploaded and tested and working?

[Carreau]

I'm mostly in meeting this afternoon, please feel free to push, and tag. You did all the work!

[gnestor]

Thanks everybody here and elsewhere (we need a @jupyter/notebook team for this instance) who contributed to this release!

When you have a chance, please install from PyPI and test. Everything seems to be working fine for me...

@Carreau Do we need to publish a blog post about this? Or publish anywhere else?

[jasongrout]

Wait! I have some major bugfixes I'm working on right now necessary to implement an Output widget.
