Gem ship.

[hsbt]

I found some blocker for openssl gem release.

• namespace of openssl. https://rubygems.org/gems/openssl
• Version number
• removed openssl from rubygems blacklist . https://github.com/hsbt/rubygems.org/blob/master/lib/patterns.rb

@rhenium @zzak If you have some blocker, Please note this issue. I will try to solve it.

[hsbt]

I send transfer offer to openssl owner.

[rhenium]

I contacted the current owner at mbailey/openssl#1 and @mbailey agreed with releasing the gem namespace.

[hsbt]

oops. Should I continue to transfer negotiation instead of you?

And I sometimes request to remove stdlib protection to rubygems admins. see. rubygems/rubygems.org#1273

[hsbt]

commented mbailey/openssl#1 (comment)

[hsbt]

note: rubygems/rubygems#1663 , rubygems/rubygems.org#1373

[zzak]

I guess we still need to decide a version number?

[hsbt]

@rhenium I've been promoted openssl owner by rubygems admins. Can you give your mail address on rubygems?

[rhenium]

@hsbt Thank you always! My email is k(at)rhe.jp.

[hsbt]

@rhenium I added owner grant to you. If you are ready to ship openssl gem, I'm going to request to remove openssl from rubygems blacklist.

[rhenium]

@hsbt Thanks!

It looks like openssl is already excluded from the list, at least in the source repository. rubygems/rubygems.org@6e74bd9

I think we can release now if only we decide the version number.

[zzak]

@hsbt @rhenium お疲れさまです! I will review #59 and commit my changes to the documentation.

Regarding the NEWS, as of 1b8bcdb the organization is:

• Compatibility
• Updates since 2.3 (in order of class)

However, there is some duplication between the updates and compatibility list.

I will review this too, but first I think we could split it up similar to Rails release notes as such:

• Compatibility notes (with regards to OpenSSL versions)
• Supported platforms (with current release)
• Changes in current release

Changes would include the following:

• Notable changes (such as breaking api, or additions, features, etc)
• Removals (Already deprecated features that were removed)
• Deprecations (Stuff to be removed next release)

One other idea is after the release is made, we should consider moving the NEWS document like we do with Ruby, i.e.: docs/NEWS-2.4.0

Thanks for taking the time to work on this and prepare the release!

I will submit my thoughts in the form of a patch :)

[rhenium]

@zzak Thanks! That's a great help.

One other idea is after the release is made, we should consider moving the NEWS document like we do with Ruby, i.e.: docs/NEWS-2.4.0

I think we can just append on top, each release note would be smaller than Ruby. Maybe I should have named it History.

[zzak]

Append is also fine! Let's go with History.

[zzak]

@rhenium @hsbt I sent a PR with my changes, please check it when you're ready

I think we can also close #54 once this is done, thanks!!

[rhenium]

@zzak Thank you! It looks much nicer! Do you have suggestions on changes in README.md and CONTRIBURING.md?

[zzak]

@rhenium Thanks, I will review.

[hsbt]

OpenSSL::VERSION already retunes "1.1.0". We should use 2.0.0 when releasing openssl gem.

[rhenium]

OpenSSL 1.1.0 was just released today, and Ruby/OpenSSL looks working fine with it: https://travis-ci.org/ruby/openssl/builds/155282416

Is there still a blocker for the release?

[hsbt]

Is there still a blocker for the release?

There is no blocker for me

[zzak]

I have no blockers, version 2.0.0 sounds fine.

Let's yank the current gems from rubygems.org and cut a pre-release?

[rhenium]

Let's yank the current gems from rubygems.org and cut a pre-release?

I think so! Can I do that?

[zzak]

@rhenium Yes, if you are authenticated on rubygems.org, via the gem command you can yank the old versions with:

gem yank openssl -v '0.2.0'
gem yank openssl -v '0.1.0'

And to publish (after updating version.rb):

gem build openssl.gemspec
gem push openss-2.0.0.beta1.gem

For example if you wanted to choose "beta1" as the first pre-release.

[rhenium]

Just pushed openssl-2.0.0.beta1: https://rubygems.org/gems/openssl

[rhenium]

Imported to trunk at: ruby/ruby@c9dc016

[zzak]

@rhenium Ah great!

Btw, I think two things are missing in History from #18, that is ALPN and ECDH callback support.

We can add it to the news in the next beta/rc?

edit: also, I want to "linkify" the History.md so we can click through the tickets/PRs from there

[zzak]

Linkify in #69

[zzak]

@tenderlove BTW bro, the tmp_ecdh_callback stuff was removed in favor of ecdh_curves: https://github.com/ruby/openssl/blob/v2.0.0.beta.1/History.md#deprecations

[rhenium]

@zzak ALPN and ECDH callback are part of Ruby 2.3 (though they aren't in doc/NEWS-2.3.0).

[zzak]

@rhenium Ahh, ok! I will revert 59b22d4 then.

[hsbt]

Gem ship is done. ref. https://rubygems.org/gems/openssl/versions/2.0.0.beta.1
