Install v1.0.0 in a Python 3.4 or Python 3.5 installation:

 $ pip --version
  pip 8.1.2 from ... (python 3.5)

  $ pip install wal-e[aws,azure,google,swift]

This release is forward and backward compatible with existing archives. The release notes follow.

Release v1.0.0 contains the conversion WAL-E from a Python 2.7 to a
Python 3.4 and Python 3.5 project.  It also adds support for Google
Cloud Storage (Matt Wright, Daniel Farina, Samuel Kohonen).

In addition, all WAL-E storage backends have been made optional. Thus,
running ``pip install wal-e`` does not install any backends by
default.  One must instead write a command akin to ``pip install
wal-e[aws]``.  The valid options are:

* aws
* azure
* google
* swift

Finally, there are some detailed adjustments:

* Default parallelism for ``wal-push`` has been increased to 32.

* 404 messages have been demoted to "INFO" rather than "WARNING"
  because they can happen routinely and continuously, particularly
  with ``standby_mode=on`` (earsdown).

* Top-level backups in Azure no longer create a nameless "directory"
  (Andrew Marks).

* WAL-E start-up log message has been suppressed in some noisy cases:
  ``wal-fetch``, ``wal-push``, ``wal-prefetch``.

* WABS's `Content-Type` header is being set correctly.  Previously
  this header was confused with `Content-Encoding` (David Dever).
