Subject: [ANN] PyYAML-5.4b2: Linux and Mac users, please test!

=======================
Announcing PyYAML-5.4b2
=======================

A beta release of PyYAML is now available:
https://github.com/yaml/pyyaml/releases/tag/5.4b2

This release contains a security fix for CVE-2020-14343. It removes the
python/module, python/object, and python/object/new tags from the FullLoader.
YAML that uses these tags must be loaded by UnsafeLoader, or a custom loader
that has explicitly enabled them.

This beta release also adds Python wheels for manylinux1 (x86_64) and
MacOS (x86_64) with the libyaml extension included (built on libyaml 0.2.5).
We believe these wheels to be stable, but please take the opportunity to test
against your local Linux and MacOS environments, and file any issues at
https://github.com/yaml/pyyaml/issues.

PyYAML 5.4 will be the last release to support Python 2.7.

About PyYAML
============

YAML is a data serialization format designed for human readability and
interaction with scripting languages. PyYAML is a YAML parser and emitter for
Python.

PyYAML features a complete YAML 1.1 parser, Unicode support, pickle support,
capable extension API, and sensible error messages. PyYAML supports standard
YAML tags and provides Python-specific tags that allow to represent an
arbitrary Python object.

PyYAML is applicable for a broad range of tasks from complex configuration
files to object serialization and persistence.


Example
=======

```
>>> import yaml

>>> yaml.full_load("""
... name: PyYAML

... homepage: https://github.com/yaml/pyyaml
... keywords: [YAML, serialization, configuration, persistence, pickle]
... """)
{'keywords': ['YAML', 'serialization', 'configuration', 'persistence',
