New Agenda Items
- Upcoming conda 4.10.0 release (planned around end of March, early April)
- Formally dropping support for Python 2.7, Python < 3.6 (in the base environment)
- https://github.com/conda/conda/issues/10180
- conda-forge, defaults have not supported Py2.7 since 4.8.3 (Mar 2020), Py3.5 since 4.5.11 (Aug 2018)
- This only impacts the base environment. Support for non-base Py2.7, < 3.6 envs will continue indefinitely.
- Introducing support for artifact verification
- First release: sign and verifies metadata in repodata.json
- Currently only available as pilot program to subset of Anaconda customers
- Mid- to long-term goals include:
- Making signed metadata on defaults
- Allowing channels like conda-forge to sign packages & metadata
- Soliciting community input on signature specifications, functional requirements, etc.
