Hey all, As you may know, in our global requirements list [1] we are currently depending on SQLAlchemy 0.7.x versions (which is 'old stable' branch and will be deprecated soon). This is mostly due to the fact, that the latest release of sqlalchemy-migrate from PyPi doesn't support SQLAlchemy 0.8.x+.
At the same time, distros have been providing patches for fixing this incompatibility for a long time now. Moreover, those patches have been merged to sqlalchemy-migrate master too. As we are now maintaining sqlalchemy-migrate, we could make a new release of it. This would allow us to bump the version of SQLAlchemy release we are depending on (as soon as we fix all the bugs we have) and let distros maintainers stop carrying their own patches. This has been discussed at the design summit [2], so we just basically need a volunteer from [3] Gerrit ACL group to make a new release. Is sqlalchemy-migrate stable enough to make a new release? I think, yes. The commits we've merged since we adopted this library, only fix a few issues with SQLAlchemy 0.8.x compatibility and enable running of tests (we are currently testing all new changes on py26/py27, SQLAlchemy 0.7.x/0.8.x, SQLite/MySQL/PostgreSQL). Who wants to help? :) Thanks, Roman [1] https://github.com/openstack/requirements/blob/master/global-requirements.txt [2] https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/icehouse-oslo-db-migrations [3] https://review.openstack.org/#/admin/groups/186,members _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list OpenStack-dev@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
