December 2025 Release: Code Freeze & PR Handling

[leonardocarreras]

Hi everyone,

We’re preparing the DPsim December 2025 release (1.2.0) and will start a code freeze on 01 December 2025 to focus on stabilization.

• ✅ PRs are still welcome during the freeze.
• ⏳ Reviews and merges may take a bit longer. Thanks for your patience while we finalize the release.
• 🧊 From 01 Dec onward, non-critical PRs will be merged into master after the release.
• 🛠️ Release-critical fixes (bugfixes/regressions) will be included via release/1.2.0 and shipped in v1.2.0.

How you can help

• Keep PRs coming. Thanks to everyone actively contributing!
• If you can, please help test the current state of 1.2.0 (locally or via MyBinder) and report any issues you find.
• If your PR is release-critical, please say so clearly in the PR description so we can prioritize it.
• If you’re unsure whether something should go into 1.2.0, just ask in this thread.

Thanks again for your contributions and patience while we get 1.2.0 stable!

🧪 How to test the DPsim 1.2.0 RC from TestPyPI

You can install the RC10 wheel (the number of RCx will be changing when incorporating new fixes, keep an eye on that) from TestPyPI while pulling dependencies (like NumPy) from the normal PyPI index.

python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate

pip install \
  --index-url https://test.pypi.org/simple \
  --extra-index-url https://pypi.org/simple \
  dpsim==1.2.0rc10

python3 -c "import dpsimpy; import dpsimpyvillas; print('DPsim RC import OK')"

For a local test, you are welcome to try

git clone https://github.com/sogno-platform/dpsim.git
git checkout release/1.2.0

python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate

pip install .

python3 -c "import dpsimpy; import dpsimpyvillas; print('DPsim RC import OK')"
