New release python-discid 1.3.0

A new version of python-discid, a Python wrapper library for libdiscid, is now available. Version 1.3.0 is a maintenance release, ensuring this small library stays available on modern systems.

python-discid was originally implemented and maintained by Johannes Dewender (aka jonnyJD), who also maintained the libdiscid library at the time. We have now moved the project over to be part of MetaBrainz and the source code is now on https://github.com/metabrainz/python-discid/ . Thanks Johannes for supporting this move.

Despite the project move one important change is the updated build system, which now allows building with any PEP 518 compatible build tool. Also support for Python 2 was dropped, the new minimal Python version supported is Python 3.9. For a full change log see the changelog in the documentation.

The new version is available on PyPI. See also the install instructions for more options.
