    We are happy to announce the release of Taurus 5.0.0.

    This is a major release that removes support of Python2 and Qt4 (we now support python >= 3.5 and the PyQt5 and PySide2 bindings). Other than that there should not be any other backwards incompatibility between 5.x and 4.x (we intentionally avoided enforcing the pending deprecations of 4.x even if this is a major version bump) so:

    if something works on taurus 4.8 using python3 and Qt5 and it does not work in taurus 5, please report it as a bug

    Note for developers: the API documentation has been improved: classes and other members which are not "public" are no longer included in the API docs while all public members should now be included.

    This release also improves the module loading times in some situations, and it provides a long-awaited feature: installation-independent config files (no more need of editing tauruscustomsettings.py)

     

    The source files can be downloaded from:

        https://pypi.org/project/taurus/5.0.0/

    The documentation (including installation instructions for different platforms) is available at:

        http://www.taurus-scada.org

    For a detailed list of changes, see the CHANGELOG:

        https://gitlab.com/taurus-org/taurus/-/blob/develop/CHANGELOG.md

    We are happy to announce the release of Taurus 4.8.0.

    This release is relatively modest in terms of new functionality
    for the end-user because most of the effort was focused on
    project migration to gitlab.com and other developer-oriented
    improvements.

    This is the last release supporting python2 and Qt4. Work has already begun
    to prepare the next major version (taurus 5) and therefore taurus 4.8 will
    likely be the last in the 4.x series (no new features are expected to land
    on the 4.x series after this release).

    For those installing with conda, please note that taurus and all its
    dependencies are now distributed via the conda-forge channel:

    `conda install -c conda-forge taurus taurus_pyqtgraph`

    The source files can be downloaded from:

    https://pypi.org/project/taurus/4.8.0/

    The documentation (including installation instructions for different platforms) is available at:

    http://www.taurus-scada.org

    For a detailed list of changes, see the CHANGELOG:

    https://gitlab.com/taurus-org/taurus/-/blob/develop/CHANGELOG.md

    We are happy to announce the release of Taurus 4.7.0.

    TaurusGuis, better support for plugins,...

    As a novelty, taurus (and taurus_pyqtgraph) can now also be installed using conda, with:

      `conda install -c taurus-org taurus taurus_pyqtgraph`

    Dear Tangoers,

    Tango Controls Steering committee and IK company have been looking closely to the COVID-19 situation during the several weeks. We are very sorry to say but up till now most of the countries keep their borders closed and travel is not permitted.

    Due to these circumstances which are beyond our control, the Tango Controls meeting 2020 is postponed from June to November 2020 in the hope that it will then be possible to travel and meet in St Petersburg. THe new dates are:

        November, 17-19 2020.

    We really hope that the situation in November will be safe and we all will be able to meet face-2-face and have a productive and exciting meeting in the beautiful city of St Petersburg! Thank you for understanding.

    In the meantime a compact virtual meeting is planned for the 10 June so that the community stays informed of progress for the core projects. More details to follow on this site.

    Looking forward to seeing you online in June and face-2-face in Saint Petersburg!

    We wish you all good health.
