+Twisted 18.4.0rc1 (2018-04-01)
+==============================
+
+Features
+--------
+
+- The --port/--https arguments to web plugin are now deprecated, in favor of
+  --listen. The --listen argument can be given multiple times to listen on
+  multiple ports. (#6670)
+- Twisted now requires zope.interface 4.4.2 or higher across all platforms and
+  Python versions. (#8149)
+- The osx_platform setuptools extra has been renamed to macos_platform, with
+  the former name being a compatibility alias. (#8848)
+- Zsh completions are now provided for the twist command. (#9338)
+- twisted.internet.endpoints.HostnameEndpoint now has a __repr__ method which
+  includes the host and port to which the endpoint connects. (#9341)
+
+
+Bugfixes
+--------
+
+- twistd now uses the UID's default GID to initialize groups when --uid is
+  given but --gid is not. This prevents an unhandled TypeError from being
+  raised when os.initgroups() is called. (#4442)
+- twisted.protocols.basic.LineReceiver checks received lines' lengths against
+  its MAX_LENGTH only after receiving a complete delimiter. A line ending in a
+  multi-byte delimiter like '\r\n' might be split by the network, with the
+  first part arriving before the rest; previously, LineReceiver erroneously
+  disconnected if the first part, e.g. 'zzzz....\r' exceeded MAX_LENGTH.
+  LineReceiver now checks received data against MAX_LENGTH plus the delimiter's
+  length, allowing short reads to complete a line. (#6556)
+- twisted.protocols.basic.LineOnlyReceiver disconnects the transport after
+  receiving a line that exceeds MAX_LENGTH, like LineReceiver. (#6557)
+- twisted.web.http.Request.getClientIP now returns the host part of the
+  client's address when connected over IPv6. (#7704)
+- twisted.application.service.IService is now documented as requiring the
+  'running', 'name' and 'parent' attributes (the documentation previously
+  implied they were required, but was unclear). (#7922)
+- twisted.web.wsgi.WSGIResource no longer raises an exception when a client
+  connects over IPv6. (#8241)
+- When using TLS enable automatic ECDH curve selection on OpenSSL 1.0.2+
+  instead of only supporting P-256 (#9210)
+- twisted.trial._dist.worker and twisted.trial._dist.workertrial consistently
+  pass bytes, not unicode to AMP. This fixes "trial -j" on Python 3. (#9264)
+- twisted.trial.runner now uses the 'importlib' module instead of the 'imp'
+  module on Python 3+. This eliminates DeprecationWarnings caused by importing
+  'imp' on Python 3. (#9275)
+- twisted.web.client.HTTP11ClientProtocol now closes the connection when the
+  server is sending a header line which is longer than he line limit of
+  twisted.protocols.basic.LineReceiver.MAX_LENGTH. (#9295)
+- twisted.python.failure now handles long stacktraces better; in particular it
+  will log tracebacks for stack overflow errors. (#9301)
+- The "--_shell-completion" argument to twistd now works on Python 3. (#9303)
+- twisted.python.failure.Failure now raises the wrapped exception in Python3,
+  and self (Failure) n Python2 when trap() is called without a matching
+  exception (#9307)
+- Writing large amounts of data no longer implies repeated, expensive copying
+  under Python 3. Python 3's write speeds are now as fast as Python 2's.
+  (#9324)
+- twisted.protocols.postfix now properly encodes errors which are unicode
+  strings to bytes. (#9335)
+- twisted.protocols.policies.ProtocolWrapper and
+  twisted.protocols.tls.TLSMemoryBIOProtocol no longer create circular
+  references that keep protocol instances in memory after connection is closed.
+  (#9374)
+- twisted.conch.ssh.transport.SSHTransportBase no longer strips trailing spaces
+  from the SSH version string of the connected peer. (#9377)
+- `trial -j` no longer crashes on Python 2 on test failure messages containing
+  non-ASCII bytes. (#9378)
+- RSA keys replaced with 2048bit ones in twisted.conch.test.keydata in order to
+  be compatible with OpenSSH 7.6. (#9388)
+- AsyncioSelectorReactor uses the global policy's event loop. asyncio libraries
+  that retrieve the running event loop with get_event_loop() will now receive
+  the one used by AsyncioSelectorReactor. (#9390)
+
+
+Improved Documentation
+----------------------
+
+- public attributes of `twisted.logger.Logger` are now documented as
+  attributes. (#8157)
+- List indentation formatting errors have been corrected throughout the
+  documentation. (#9256)
+
+
+Deprecations and Removals
+-------------------------
+
+- twisted.protocols.basic.LineOnlyReceiver.lineLengthExceeded no longer returns
+  twisted.internet.error.ConnectionLost. It instead directly disconnects the
+  transport and returns None. (#6557)
+- twisted.python.win32.getProgramsMenuPath and
+  twisted.python.win32.getProgramFilesPath were deprecated in Twisted 15.3.0
+  and have now been removed. (#9312)
+- Python 3.3 is no longer supported. (#9352)
+
+
+Misc
+----
+
+- #7033, #8887, #9204, #9289, #9291, #9292, #9293, #9302, #9336, #9355, #9356,
+  #9364, #9375, #9381, #9382, #9389, #9391, #9393, #9394, #9396
+
+
+Conch
+-----
+
+Bugfixes
+~~~~~~~~
+
+- twisted.plugins.cred_unix now properly converts a username and password from
+  bytes to str on Python 3. In addition, passwords which are encrypted with
+  SHA512 and SH256 are properly verified. This fixes running a conch server
+  with: "twistd -n conch -d /etc/ssh/ --auth=unix". (#9130)
+- In twisted.conch.scripts.conch, on Python 3 do not write bytes directly to
+  sys.stderr. On Python 3, this fixes remote SSH execution of a command which
+  fails. (#9344)
+
+
+Deprecations and Removals
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- twisted.conch.ssh.filetransfer.FileTransferClient.wasAFile attribute has been
+  removed as it serves no purpose. (#9362)
+- Removed deprecated support for PyCrypto key objects in conch (#9368)
+
+
+Web
+---
+
+Features
+~~~~~~~~
+
+- The new twisted.iweb.IRequest.getClientAddress returns the IAddress provider
+  representing the client's address. Callers should check the type of the
+  returned value before using it. (#7707)
+- Eliminate use of twisted.python.log in twisted.web modules. (#9280)
+
+
+Bugfixes
+~~~~~~~~
+
+- Scripts ending with .rpy, .epy, and .cgi now execute properly in Twisted Web
+  on Python 3. (#9271)
+- twisted.web.http.Request and twisted.web.server.Request are once again
+  hashable on Python 2, fixing a regression introduced in Twisted 17.5.0.
+  (#9314)
+
+
+Improved Documentation
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- Correct reactor docstrings for twisted.web.client.Agent and
+  twisted.web.client._StandardEndpointFactory to communicate interface
+  requirements since 17.1. (#9274)
+- The examples for the "Twisted Web in 60 Seconds" tutorial have been fixed to
+  work on Python 3. (#9285)
+
+
+Deprecations and Removals
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- twisted.iweb.IRequest.getClientIP is deprecated. Use
+  twisted.iweb.IRequest.getClientAddress instead (see #7707). (#7705)
+- twisted.web.iweb.IRequest.getClient and its implementations (deprecated in
+  #2552) have been removed. (#9395)
+
+
+Mail
+----
+
+Bugfixes
+~~~~~~~~
+
+- twistd.mail.scripts.mailmail has been ported to Python 3. (#8487)
+- twisted.mail.bounce now works on Python 3. (#9260)
+- twisted.mail.pop3 and twisted.mail.pop3client now work on Python 3. (#9269)
+- SMTP authentication in twisted.mail.smtp now works better on Python 3, due to
+  improved improved bytes vs unicode handling. (#9299)
+
+
+Misc
+~~~~
+
+- #9310
+
