Final release for 1.9?

[frenzymadness]

Hello. Would it make sense to release the final release for 1.9? The release candidate has been available since January.

@ssbarnea, @hartwork Do you have any objections to a final release?

[hartwork]

@jonasstein I don't have any objections but I lack permissions to (1) push to main, (2) merge without review by a second member and (3) release to PyPI. I can do without (1) but (2) and (3) are essential. If I had that it would take:

1. First unblocking the CI by merging Fix tox and readthedocs #221

2. Then rebase and merge…

   • chore: pre-commit autoupdate #219
   • Bump actions/checkout from 3 to 4 #220
   • Fix pypi project description #223
   • Restore man page rendering #202

   …ideally in that order.

3. Doing a release off main including Git tag, GitHub release notes and PyPI release.

@ralphbean @ssbarnea can you give me the necessary permissions to be able to move forward?

@ralphbean @ssbarnea can you give me the necessary permissions (see above) — to be able to move forward?

@hartwork You have green light and I hope you will make decisions. Publishing should work now with current pipeline as we no longer need secrets - i just configured the trusted publisher.

Released as https://pypi.org/project/ansi2html/1.9.1/

@ssbarnea did you really just release 1.9.1 without a rendered man page while I was very clear since the beginning that it's a release blocker to not have the man page in the tarball?

@ssbarnea I still cannot merge anything without approval, so I gained zero permissions and my hands are as tied as before. For the record.
