Accidentally visited Travis CI and if you're wondering how it's going there, a banner reads:
"Important Notice: Starting April 1st, 2025, OSx/macOS builds will no longer be supported due to the end-of-life (EOL) of VMWare support for macOS infrastructure."
And of course a chatbot:
"Hey, I'm Travis. Your AI Assistant"
"The accuracy of the information cannot be guaranteed and should be separately reviewed and verified by a human."
Thank to everyone who came along to our meetup yesterday and also to our hosts Helen!
We had two great talks:
🦍 Miikka Koskinen @Miikka - Compressing floating point data with Gorilla
🖥️ Heikki Ketoharju @heikkiket - Writing a native desktop app with Python and GTK
Plus three lightning talks:
⚡ Hugo van Kemenade @hugovk - Python 3.14 news!
⚡ Roman Abashin - itter.sh: social media for purists
⚡ Ivan Ignatev - SADT/IDEF0 as to-go project diagrams
I'm hosting a session during the UN Open Source Week "Maintain-a-thon" hosted by @sovtechfund and Alpha-Omega.
The session is "Security for the Long-Haul", focusing on low-energy security for projects that are feature-complete or have fewer maintainers.
The Python Language Summit is a yearly event that takes place before #PyConUS, where core developers, triagers, and other guests discuss the future direction of #Python.
You can read the summaries of each session on the PSF blog: https://pyfound.blogspot.com/2025/06/python-language-summit-2025.html
Just published the blog posts for the #Python Language Summit 2025. It's quite fun to cover this important event and contribute to the Python community in this unique way :)
Please take a look if you weren't able to attend the Language Summit in person:

As part of the 2025 UN Open Source Week, the Sovereign Tech Agency and Alpha-Omega are hosting a special hackathon: the maintain-a-thon.
The maintain-a-thon convenes key open source experts and maintainers from around the world and highlights the importance of sustainability and long-term stewardship in open source digital infrastructure. We're creating a space for maintainers to exchange effective practices, transform insights into action, and amplify the impact.

cibuildwheel 3.0.0 is out, with some very big additions. We’ve added GraalPy, Python 3.14 (and 3.14t) betas, and iOS support! We’ve got several new options: test-sources, test-environment, and (experimental) pyodide-version. We now fully use enable (and PyPy requires using it), and we no longer inject setuptools and wheel in build environments. Defaults have changed, too: build is now the default frontend, manylinux_2_28 is the default manylinux image, with 32-bit linux now being opt-in. We’ve removed support for Python 3.6 and 3.7, we now require 3.11+ to run cibuildwheel itself, and EoL manylinux/musllinux images now need to be fully specified. We’ve had some fantastic releases of cibuildwheel since my last post over 2.19, so I’ll include a few of the new features from those releases, too. I’ll also note a few of the features being worked on for future releases.
