Python 3.5 adds some very novel language features that new projects |
| 13 |
have already started to depend on. In fact, some packages (such as |
| 14 |
qutebrowser) are soon to require Python 3.6, which provides some |

extremely useful extensions to the extremely useful extensions. |

If you have nothing that requires it at this moment it is unlikely you |
| 18 |
have any need to update, but it is a good practice to track stable. |
