After the release of buster, the Debian “bullseye” is now the testing version and has been added in repositories.
The development version of WeeChat is now available for bullseye (amd64/i386 only), and will be built every night.
And the stable version 2.5 is now available for buster.
All repositories are here: https://weechat.org/download/debian/
As scheduled in the Python 3 transition page, since July 1st 2019, the “python” plugin is now compiled with Python 3 by default.
For more information, see the blog post: https://weechat.org/blog/post/2019/07/02/Python-3-by-default
According to plan, on July 1st, WeeChat will be compiled with Python 3.x instead of 2.7. The next stable version will use Python 3.x by default (2.7 is still supported with a build option).
Many scripts are not yet ready, your help is welcome, see: https://weechat.org/scripts/python3/

Happy birthday WeeChat, 15 years!
On June 26th 2003, my search for a free IRC client with text interface, builtin nicklist and extensible with scripts was unsuccessful, so I (@flashcode) decided to write my own client from scratch. Starting point of a long and fun adventure!
The Python 3 porting party for WeeChat scripts started! There are 173 scripts to port to Python 3 (for now compatibility with Python 2.7 must be preserved). You can help us to reach the goal of 100% Python3-compatible scripts at the beginning of 2020!
New design for weechat.org!
The site is now responsive, using Bootstrap.
Hope you enjoy the new site!
