Hello everyone!

Hot off the presses comes Twisted 15.5.0pre1, the prerelease of Twisted 15.5, 
which has been described by some as "totally radical" and "off the wall".

In this release:

- Python 3.5 support on POSIX was added, and Python 2.6 support was dropped.
- More than nine additional modules have been ported to Python 3, ranging from 
Twisted Web's Agent and downloadPage, twisted.python.logfile, and many others, 
as well as...
- twistd is ported to Python 3, and its first plugin, web, is ported.
- twisted.python.url, a new URL/IRI abstraction, has been introduced to answer 
the question "just what IS a URL" in Twisted, once and for all.
- NPN and ALPN support has been added to Twisted's TLS implementation, paving 
the way for HTTP/2.
- Conch now supports the DH group14-sha1 and group-exchange-sha256 key exchange 
algorithms, as well as hmac-sha2-256 and hmac-sha2-512 MAC algorithms. Conch 
also works nicer with newer OpenSSH implementations.
- Twisted's IRC support now has a sendCommand() method, which enables the use 
of sending messages with tags.
- 55+ closed tickets overall.

As usual, it's available for download -- go here 
(https://twistedmatrix.com/Releases/pre/15.5.0pre1/) to get the prerelease 
tarballs and the full NEWS file.

Please let me know if you have any issues, as well as if you don't! If 
everything works well, that's a good thing for me to know :)

Thanks! <3
