idna

3.10 (2024-09-15)

    Reverted to Unicode 15.1.0 data. Unicode 16 has some significant changes to UTS46 
processing that will require more work to properly implement.

    Update to Unicode 16.0.0
    Deprecate setup.cfg in favour of pyproject.toml
    Use ruff for code formatting

    Add support for Python 3.13, drop support for Python 3.5 as it is no longer 
testable.

msgpack

1.1.0

Release Date: 2024-09-10

    use PyLong_* instead of PyInt_* for compatibility with future Cython. (#620)

1.1.0rc2

Release Date: 2024-08-19

    Update Cython to 3.0.11 for better Python 3.13 support.
    Update cibuildwheel to 2.20.0 to build Python 3.13 wheels.

1.1.0rc1

Release Date: 2024-05-07

    Update Cython to 3.0.10 to reduce C warnings and future support for Python 3.13.
    Stop using C++ mode in Cython to reduce compile error on some compilers.
    Packer() has buf_size option to specify initial size of internal buffer to reduce 
reallocation.
    The default internal buffer size of Packer() is reduced from 1MiB to 256KiB to 
optimize for common use cases. Use buf_size if you are packing large data.
    Timestamp.to_datetime() and Timestamp.from_datetime() become more accurate by 
avoiding floating point calculations. (#591)
    The Cython code for Unpacker has been slightly rewritten for maintainability.
    The fallback implementation of Packer() and Unpacker() now uses keyword-only 
arguments to improve compatibility with the Cython implementation.

urllib3

2.3.0 (2024-12-22)
Features

    Added HTTPResponse.shutdown() to stop any ongoing or future reads for a specific 
response. It calls shutdown(SHUT_RD) on the underlying socket. This feature was 
sponsored by LaunchDarkly. (#2868)
    Added support for JavaScript Promise Integration on Emscripten. This enables more 
efficient WebAssembly requests and streaming, and makes it possible to use in Node.js if 
you launch it as node --experimental-wasm-stack-switching. (#3400)
    Added the proxy_is_tunneling property to HTTPConnection and HTTPSConnection. (#3285)
    Added pickling support to NewConnectionError and NameResolutionError. (#3480)

Bugfixes

    Fixed an issue in debug logs where the HTTP version was rendering as "HTTP/11" 
instead of "HTTP/1.1". (#3489)

Deprecations and Removals

    Removed support for Python 3.8. (#3492)

2.2.3 (2024-09-12)
Features

    Added support for Python 3.13. (#3473)

Bugfixes

    Fixed the default encoding of chunked request bodies to be UTF-8 instead of 
ISO-8859-1. All other methods of supplying a request body already use UTF-8 starting in 
urllib3 v2.0. (#3053)
    Fixed ResourceWarning on CONNECT with Python < 3.11.4 by backporting python/
cpython#103472. (#3252)
    Adjust tolerance for floating-point comparison on Windows to avoid flakiness in CI 
(#3413)
    Fixed a crash where certain standard library hash functions were absent in 
restricted environments. (#3432)
    Fixed mypy error when adding to HTTPConnection.default_socket_options. (#3448)

HTTP/2 (experimental)

HTTP/2 support is still in early development.

    Excluded Transfer-Encoding: chunked from HTTP/2 request body (#3425)

    Added version checking for h2 (https://pypi.org/project/h2/) usage.

    Added a probing mechanism for determining whether a given target origin supports 
HTTP/2 via ALPN. (#3301)

    Add support for sending a request body with HTTP/2 (#3302)

Deprecations and Removals

    Note for downstream distributors: the _version.py file has been removed and is now 
created at build time by hatch-vcs. (#3412)
    Drop support for end-of-life PyPy3.8 and PyPy3.9. (#3475)

[Douglas R. Reno]

While reviewing my spreadsheet for the final time before pushing, I noticed that I forgot a module - pytz-2025.1. The changes for this module are just updates to the bundled IANA timezone database.
