Release 2.0

[parente]

Let's discuss making a 2.0 release. Here's things I think need to get done vs those that can be moved out:

TODOs

• Come to resolution on Update all swagger.json endpoints to support auth token header/query param #236, do we need to update the swagger more or not?
• Move Support notebook 4.3 token generation (or equivalent) #211 out to a 2.1 or 3.0 release. KG has support for tokens in query parameters now. This issue is to switch to using the implementation in jupyter/notebook instead of the custom one here if it's possible and makes sense to do so.
• Improve description in the doc for Documentation updates to clarify kernel_gateway's purpose #229 (PR #229 update project overview in readme and docs #246)
• Test a couple of https://github.com/jupyter/kernel_gateway_demos to ensure they are still functional with the changes in master
• Update the changelog both in the project root and doc

What do folks think? @rolweber?

[rolweber]

For a major release, we should consider #229 as well.

[parente]

Fine by me. I'll tag it 2.0. Are you cool with moving #211 out of the 2.0 milestone?

[rolweber]

Yes, that's fine with me.

[rolweber]

How much extra effort would it be to release 1.2.2 alongside 2.0?
How could I help? Update the changelog in both branches?

[parente]

It's not too much effort. I'm happy to do it. I'll send PRs for that branch. I think there's a backport missing for a duplicate deserialization bug fix that has to go into that branch too.

@rolweber I tagged and pushed 1.2.2 off the 1.2.x branch. It should be on pypi. Do you also need a conda-forge package built for it? I haven't done multi-branch conda-forge builds, but I hear it's possible by creating branches in https://github.com/conda-forge/jupyter_kernel_gateway-feedstock

[rolweber]

@parente: Great, thanks! PyPI is sufficient for now.

One small nuisance though: PyPi now considers 1.2.2 to be the "latest version".

[parente]

Ah. I can fix that. I can also grant you permission to manage it if you'd like. Create an account on pypi and let me know your username if you are interested.

[rolweber]

@parente: Great, thanks! I registered at PyPI as 'rolweber'.

[parente]

@rolweber I've added you as a maintainer on pypi. One of these days when we cut a new release, I can take you through the steps if you're available.
