# Virtual Environments { #virtual-environments }

When you work in Python projects you probably should use a **virtual environment** (or a similar mechanism) to isolate the packages you install for each project.

/// info

If you already know about virtual environments, how to create them and use them, you might want to skip this section. 🤓

///

/// tip

A **virtual environment** is different than an **environment variable**.

 *  **Canceling batches of calls is now the application's responsibility.**
    The API to cancel calls by tag has been removed and replaced with a more
    general mechanism. The dispatcher now exposes all in-flight calls via its
    `runningCalls()` and `queuedCalls()` methods. You can write code that
    selects calls by tag, host, or whatever, and invokes `Call.cancel()` on the

    HTTPS connection. If you continue to need to connect to webservers
    running SSLv3, you must manually configure your own `ConnectionSpec`.

 *  **OkHttp now offers interceptors.** Interceptors are a powerful mechanism
    that can monitor, rewrite, and retry calls. The [interceptors doc][interceptors] is a full
    introduction to this new API.

 *  New: APIs to iterate and selectively clear the response cache.

Android-specific APIs. With this release we're starting to publish OkHttp as an AAR for Android
users in addition to our existing JAR for JVM users.

This first Android-specific artifact adopts Android's `assets` mechanism to embed the public suffix
data. We will build more Android integration in future releases.

The okhttp-android artifact first introduced in `5.0.0-alpha.7` is no longer available:

	notInitialized := strings.Contains(err.Error(), "Server not initialized, please try again") ||
		errors.Is(err, errServerNotInitialized)

	// Initializing sub-systems needs a retry mechanism for
	// the following reasons:
	//  - Read quorum is lost just after the initialization
	//    of the object layer.
	//  - Write quorum not met when upgrading configuration

sasl_username    (string)    username for SASL/PLAIN or SASL/SCRAM authentication
sasl_password    (string)    password for SASL/PLAIN or SASL/SCRAM authentication
sasl_mechanism   (string)    sasl authentication mechanism, default 'PLAIN'
tls_client_auth  (string)    clientAuth determines the Kafka server's policy for TLS client auth
sasl             (on|off)    set to 'on' to enable SASL authentication

 * {@link ReentrantLock}, and {@code Monitor}.
 *
 * <h3>{@code synchronized}</h3>
 *
 * <p>This version is the fewest lines of code, largely because the synchronization mechanism used
 * is built into the language and runtime. But the programmer has to remember to avoid a couple of
 * common bugs: The {@code wait()} must be inside a {@code while} instead of an {@code if}, and

* Advanced auditing is the default auditing mechanism at `v1beta1`. The new version introduces the following changes:

### SIG Cloud Provider

### SIG CLI

SIG CLI's main focus this release was on refactoring `kubectl` internals to improve composability, readability and testability of `kubectl` commands. Those refactors will allow the team to extract a mechanism for extensibility of kubectl -- that is, plugins -- in the next releases.

### SIG Cluster Lifecycle
