Hello, everyone. |
2 |
|
3 |
The most recent release of IPython removes support for Python 3.6. |
4 |
Unless I'm mistaken, this is the first very high profile package |
5 |
to become 3.7+ only. Please expect a major slay of Python 3.6 support |
6 |
in its reverse dependencies today. That is, when I finish the large |
7 |
part of my today's TODO called 'immediate bumps'. |

|
9 |
I would like to take this as an opportunity to remind you to port your |
10 |
packages to Python 3.7 and 3.8. According to our timeline [1], packages |
11 |
that are not ported by the end of the year are going to be last rited. |
12 |
We would also like to switch to 3.8 in December. |
