[Colin Watson <cjwatson@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The proposal to merge ~cjwatson/launchpad:py3-loggerhead-secure-cookie into launchpad:master has been updated.

Description changed to:

paste.auth.cookie is deprecated, and getting it to work with Python 3 is cumbersome at best.  Switch to secure-cookie, which seems to have a nicer API for our purposes, appears to be better-maintained (by the Werkzeug folks), and allows us to fix a long-standing minor deficiency around deleting session cookies on logout.

This will break existing Loggerhead sessions.  I think that's OK since it's a one-time thing, but it's worth noting.
