Final v3.0.0 release

[davidbrochart]

It seems to me that we could release jupyter-collaboration v3.0.0. I installed v3.0.0b3 and it works fine with JupyterLab v4.2.5. Or should we make another pre-release that includes the timeline?

[davidbrochart]

What do you think about including #353?

Or should we make another pre-release that includes the timeline?

Is the timeline opt-in? Or can it be collapsed? Thinking it might take quite some space in the status bar, according to the screencast in the blog post: https://blog.jupyter.org/exploring-a-documents-timeline-in-jupyterlab-6084f96db263

If so, it could be useful to mention it in the docs: https://jupyterlab-realtime-collaboration.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

Is the timeline opt-in?

It's not opt-in, but if you don't use it then no slider is shown, only this icon:

I think we should sync it with JupyterLab 4.3.0 final. I think we do not have to wait for #345 but it would be lovely to include it if we can.

I think we should sync it with JupyterLab 4.3.0 final.

When do you see this happening?

[krassowski]

One week after RC gets published assuming no new blockers

[davidbrochart]

I just released jupyter-collaboration v3.0.0b4.

I think we should sync it with JupyterLab 4.3.0 final.

But why does it need to be synced, since it works with JupyterLab 4.2.5?

[krassowski]

Ah, the dependency is the other way round. JupyterLab 4.3 requires the new collaboration packages to have lifted ydoc version pin, right? In that case I guess it does not need to wait :)

JupyterLab 4.3 requires the new collaboration packages to have lifted ydoc version pin, right?

Yes. I just tried jupyter-collaboration v3.0.0b4 with JupyterCAD, everything seems to work fine.
I'd like to have #353 in before the final release, it will allow to swap jupyter-collaboration with jupyter-shared-drive (or any other collaboration system that implements the ICollaborativeDrive), and have support for JupyterLite.

[krassowski]

So we are good to release final, right?

[davidbrochart]

There is still #353 that would be good to get in before v3. If it's merged after v3 that would be another breaking change. I'll rebase it.

[davidbrochart]

I just release v3.0.0beta8 which has #353, everything seems to work fine.
I guess we are good to release v3.0.0 final?

One thing I noticed is that when creating a new notebook, no empty cell is created, even though jupyterlab/jupyterlab#16732 was not merged yet. It might be because of jupyter-server/jupyter_ydoc#266, but I thought this was not enough and the frontend added an empty cell if there was no cell.
