Here is a slightly delayed (and short) run-down of the new stuff that we deployed recently.
The main change for this update is that we have updated the underlying OS running PythonAnywhere to Ubuntu 22.04. This is an LTS release so it will be supported for some time to come. This will not affect user environments, but it is setting us up for a new user environment that should be coming soon.
We have also:
- Started the process of updating our file servers to be more robust
- Improved our alerting so that we are alerted to many new forms of failure on PythonAnywhere
- Made some improvements to the ASGI beta systems and their documentation
- Fixed a number of security issues
- Fixed various bugs
