v1.27.0 [2023-06-12]

Important Changes

• Fix parsing of timezone abbreviations such as MST. Up to now, when parsing times with abbreviated timezones (i.e. the format ) the timezone information is ignored completely and the timestamp is located in UTC. This is a golang issue (see #9617 or #56528). If you worked around that issue, please remove the workaround before using v1.27+. In case you experience issues with abbreviated timezones please file an issue!
• Removal of old-style parser creation. This should not directly affect users as it is an API change. All parsers in Telegraf are already ported to the new framework. If you experience any issues with not being able to create parsers let us know!
