We’ve just released v20.7. Thank you to everyone who contributed to this release. As usual, upgrade using pip install -U python-telegram-bot. This release brings support for socket options, a filter for mentions and separate handling of write_timeout for media methods as new features. Moreover, inconsistencies in the handling of the read_timeout parameter for get_updates were fixed. ⚠️ Note that the changes related to timeout behavior come with some deprecations.
