py3status v3.8

Another long awaited release has come true thanks to our community!

The changelog is so huge that I had to open an issue and cry for help to make it happen... thanks again @lasers for stepping up once again :)

Highlights

  • gevent support (-g option) to switch from threads scheduling to greenlets and reduce resources consumption
  • environment variables support in i3status.conf to remove sensible information from your config
  • modules can now leverage a persistent data store
  • hundreds of improvements for various modules
  • we now have an official debian package
  • we reached 500 stars on github #vanity

Milestone 3.9

  • try to release a version faster than every 4 months (j/k) ;)

The next release will focus on bugs and modules improvements / standardization.

Thanks contributors!

This release is their work, thanks a lot guys!
