Add a release 0.30 blog post #2

tcharding · 2023-02-24T00:26:50Z

Mergeable now I believe. Then run ./build.sh --deploy from master branch after release of bitcoin 0.30.0

Link to github rendering of the markdown: https://github.com/tcharding/www.rust-bitcoin.org/blob/02-24-release-0.30-blog-post/site/content/blog/release-0.30.0.md

In preparation for the 0.30 release write up a upgrade guide as a blog post to help users with the upcoming release.

note

We do not have a github action to deploy yet. While working on this PR I pushed changes to build.sh on master to inhibit deploying unless on master branch.

+- We have a workspace now! The main crate now lives in `bitcoin/`. The `bitcoin_hashes` repository
+  has been merged into the `rust-bitcoin` repository and now lives under `hashes/`. There is a new
+  `hex` crate so you don't need to depend on `hashes` for hex stuff anymore. There is an `internals`
+  crate meant for internal use.


This is an internal change and thus not very interesting for consumers. We can mention internal changes if you like but I'd prefer to put them at the end.

I removed it all together.

Thanks @Kixunil, I'll work in your suggestions.

Force push is fix to ecdsa typo only, no other changes.

tcharding · 2023-03-07T00:08:17Z

Found a typo their/there and also we have secp 0.26 instead of secp 0.27

Kixunil · 2023-03-07T08:08:08Z

@tcharding that version was correct, since hashes break API and secp256k1 publicly depends on it we have to bump the major version (that's also why we had to patch).

tcharding · 2023-03-07T21:06:04Z

It was 0.26, I changed it to 0.27 in preparation for the upcoming release, for the reasons you say.

Kixunil

Needs a few updates. Also I guess this should no longer be a draft since the release is coming soon.

+- `CompactTarget`
+- `Work`
+
+We added a `U256` type but did not expose it since it is not a general purpose integer type. Rather


It was already present, we've hid it behind Work and Target. That's why I suggested it in the section below.

oh my bad, I wondered why you wrote Uint256, I had totally forgotten that it used to be called that.

I think we should just drop this sentence now, since we mention Uint256 below. We probably don't need to say that it was renamed, since it's private anyway.

This sentence is still present.

Thanks for flagging the comment, I had indeed missed it.

The Uint256 type was public before this release so I rekon its worth a mention. Will remove if you feel strongly about it though. Maybe I'm biased because I did the work re-writing that type :)

We already mention it below, though.

Oh I was looking at the bottom lines referring to it, my bad, will remove the top one. Thanks for you patience.

I guess the date should be set to when we release?

Good point, used a TODO placeholder - this makes hugo fail to build the site so we cannot forget.

To be explicit, PR now includes a date and i'm updating it ever day so this is mergable (and deployable) without me being available (timezones).

Thanks for the careful review @Kixunil!

Modulo the date. I didn't perform any grammar checks.

tcharding · 2023-03-19T21:39:23Z

Changes in force push:

I noticed we had the locktime module wrong, the new locktime types were relative not absolute
I added a "Renames" section to list types renamed and a comment to "Suggested steps" pointing to renames section.

tcharding · 2023-03-20T07:13:06Z

Changes in force push:

Set date to Mon 20 March
Add links to various types when mentioned in the "Suggested steps" section

To create the links I looked at what current URLs on docsrs are and hypothesized what the links would be once we release. Perhaps someone could glance at them and see I've not been brain dead but otherwise I think its ok to merge this PR as is now. Then we need to run ./build.sh --deploy on the master branch to build and publish the site (I just did a test run after merging @Kixunil's PR and I think it works, may need to check status and push manually, I got a bit confused by the output of build.sh running git commands). Do you want to run that right before you publish the 0.30 release @apoelstra?

Left a couple nits on 36348c9. I think we're good to go but since we've got a few hours (at least) I think we should fix them.

tcharding · 2023-03-20T21:29:37Z

Left a couple nits on 36348c9

Just the one nit, right? Or did some comments get lost?

tcharding · 2023-03-20T21:31:29Z

Fixed sentence as suggested and updated date to todays date: 21st

tcharding · 2023-03-21T21:21:35Z

Date is now set to the 22.

In preparation for the 0.30 release write up a upgrade guide as a blog post to help users with the upcoming release. Please note, includes comments on as-yet-unmerged PRs (*cough* hex).

tcharding · 2023-03-21T21:48:32Z

Changed date back to 21st to match the rust-bitcoin changelog heading. Also set timezone to UTC-7 and time to 20:00, I think the last 4 PRs can merge without conflict so @apoelstra might be able to get this out today?

Wow, this is great. Thanks for putting in the effort :)
