Could you please release a new version for multiprocessing changes in Python 3.4?

[gpfei]

Your commit Merge changes from multiprocessing in Python 3.4 (phew) solved an error AttributeError: 'Worker' object has no attribute '_config' which would happen when using Python 3.4, but the latest version on pypi does not contain this commit.

Could you please release a new version? Thanks!

[ask]

What is the commit?

I'm still struggling with this issue on billiard==3.3.0.20.

[davemt]

Any update on when this will be released? I'm looking for forkserver functionality, #127

[ask]

I sadly cannot release that in a bugfix release, these are for the billiard 3.4 release. I could possibly implement a workaround, that will let it work though.

[davemt]

Is there any rough estimate of date billiard 3.4 will be available on pypi?

[ask]

It coincides with the release of celery 4.0, which I hope will be in about a month, depending on how fast we can test it.

[jakirkham]

No pressure, but excited for the 3.4 release, as well.

@thedrow should we upgrade multiprocessing from 3.6? or https://pypi.python.org/pypi/distex should be the goal? I will be digging distex to understand some approach we could follow

[thedrow]

Distex will probably replace Billiard in my opinion.

[auvipy]

in the meantime, shouldn't we update to the latest multiprocessing for 4.x series?

[thedrow]

I don't have time to do so. Feel free if you do.

[auvipy]

I can if my fellow maintainers agree about the update that's why I was asking. And it seems like work for v5 need another 6 month pose at least.

[thedrow]

I don't think this is needed for 4.2. Go ahead and do it when you get a chance.

[auvipy]

thats for 4.3
