Hi folks,

Version 2 is at last nearly upon us! (Pin your dependencies!!!) I am hoping
to get it on PyPI before PyCon's talks begin, around May 10-11.

I recently spent a bunch of time on a detailed upgrade doc, which can be
viewed here:

http://docs.fabfile.org/en/v2/upgrading.html

Feedback (other than "hey, why is my favorite feature not ported yet?") is
welcome - did I leave anything out, is anything too confusing, are there
typos, etc?

Thanks, and again please pin your dependencies (or at least your version of
Fabric),
Jeff

I was unable to install patchwork using Python 3.6 ("NameError: name 'execfile' is not defined"). I think it would be helpful to have py3 compatibility matrix for the full set of
utilities (fabric, patchwork, invoke, invocations). My initial expectations after reading the doc were that everything is Py3 ready *including* the contrib replacement.

Honestly, that was my expectation as well, so I'll double check that today
- thanks a lot for the catch! Patchwork is currently the least-used of the
two contrib projects which is probably why this went unnoticed.
