I am happy to announce version 0.16.0 of Gear has been released.

Notable Changes

• The testsuite has been updated to support newer OpenSSL fixing issues like https://storyboard.openstack.org/#!/story/2009250.
• TLS version negotiation is improved to prefer the newest version of TLS supported by both client and server excluding TLS 1.3.
• Connections to gearman servers are now randomly distributed which should more evenly distribute load.
• Timeout processing is improved to avoid a situation where a connection timeout could deadlock the client.

As always, the latest version of gear is available from PyPI:

https://pypi.org/project/gear

Read the latest documentation:

https://docs.opendev.org/opendev/gear/latest/

And source code can be obtained through the OpenDev Collaboratory:

Please don't hesitate to follow up through the service-discuss at lists.opendev.org mailing list or in the #opendev channel on the OFTC IRC network if you have any questions.

It is not like I have any plan to rebuild integration/zuul any time, but it is used as a requirement in integration/config:

[testenv:zuul_tests]
...
deps =
  ...
  git+https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/integration/zuul.git#egg=zuul

In integration/zuul we should replace the integration/gear.git#egg=gear with gear>=0.0.16 and I believe we will be set.

From integration/config:

tox -r -e zuul_tests
./.tox/zuul_tests/bin/pip freeze|grep gear
gear==0.16.0

Thank you @dancy that was a great patch ;)
