Hi @zesluo - these are warnings that can be safely ignored for now. The traitlets 5.0 package has introduced a number of deprecation warnings and, since traitlets are used throughout...

I'm not sure what the best approach is moving forward. At first, based on the initial message, I figured we'd update `signature_scheme` to `CUnicode` (as the message suggests), but in...

What a drag. Looks like this item slipped through the 7.0 cracks. It seems that the solution to this, when nbconvert < 6 is required, is to cap jupyter_client <...

Hmm - I agree with those contexts relative to container-based kernels, but I think container-specific actions should be a function of the hosting provisioner rather than anything surfaced in the...

Hi @vidartf - your observations are correct and need to be addressed. Given that I see `shutdown_all()` only called from notebook/jupyter_server stop logic, I can only surmise this method is...

> This would only be true if shutdown_all was explicitly an end-of-life call, and you seemed to suggest it should not be. I'm only saying I don't think _jupyter_client_ should...

I'm not aware of a solution to this at this time short of what you've done. There's current momentum, as part of the [jupyter_server](https://github.com/jupyter/jupyter_server) effort, to introduce _parameterized kernels_. There...

This sounds like another item for the kernel parameterization cart, although one that is more of a _system-owned_ parameter. I agree that using an environment variable is the way to...

I think couching this in terms of a session name is a great idea - thanks @MSeal. Such an approach removes all sorts of implications that other names might suggest....
