Re: Python version support for LTS Django (in particular v2.2)

Hi, Django 2.2.17 (LTS), 3.0.11, and 3.1.3 add compatibility with Python 3.9 (see PR13506 ) so all supported versions of Django will be compatible with Python 3.9. However, we want to say now that Django 3.2 (LTS) will be the *first* version to

Django 2.2.8 adds compatibility with Python 3.8 (see [1]) Best, Mariusz [1] https://github.com/django/django/commit/b93a0e34d9b9b99d41103782b7e7aeabf47517e3 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers (Contributions to Django itself)" grou

I see. Well, I think I would be for supporting Python 3.8 in that case. Maybe it makes sense to add Python nightly build tests to those braches to make sure we catch issues early and it doesn't become an overwhelming task. On Fri, Nov 1, 2019, 05:02 Jani Tiainen wrote: > Problem is that Python.o

Re: Python version support for LTS Django (in particular v2.2)

Problem is that Python.org site always gives latest version as default download. When 3.8 was released one lib I work with suddenly got flood of help requests because there was not prebuilt packages for 3.8. So I think it's more issue for people that inadvertly upgrades Python. to 31. lokak. 201

Re: Python version support for LTS Django (in particular v2.2)

I am trying to understand the motivation to use an "old" Django 2.2 but a "bleading edge" Python version. I can understand Nicks logic of people needing to upgrade form Python 2 to 3 and Debian by default gave them Python 3.7. Following that narrative, maybe we should check what the major operat

Re: Python version support for LTS Django (in particular v2.2)

I think that the main reason for supporting Python 3.7 in Django 1.11 was to help make things easier for those migrating from Python 2 to 3. Python 3.8 was only released ~3 months before the Python 2 EOL, so most people in the last year and up to the end of this year will likely migrate to Pyth

Re: Python version support for LTS Django (in particular v2.2)

I'm also in favour of adding 3.8 support and backporting 3.9 support assuming it's not a huge change! On Wed, 30 Oct 2019 at 16:39, Tobias McNulty wrote: > On Wed, Oct 30, 2019 at 12:29 PM Carlton Gibson > wrote: > >> That _highly recommend_ sentence could go: >> >> > We highly recommend and on

Not so much prompted, as reminded. It's already on my mind... I've a lot of "Add Python 3.8 support" in various places the last couple of weeks... That _highly recommend_ sentence could go: > We highly recommend and only officially support the latest point release of each support Python serie

Re: Python version support for LTS Django (in particular v2.2)

tl;dr: I'm in favor of officially supporting 3.8, if it looks like it won't be so hard to do (and especially if doing so will result in a net decrease in the support burden). Long answer: I'm not sure if this was prompted in part by my question in #django-dev... but consider me one of the people

Python version support for LTS Django (in particular v2.2)

Hi all. In November last year we added official Python 3.7 support to Django 1.11. https://groups.google.com/d/topic/django-developers/H7fP5w0YU2I/discussion This was 18 months after release, and well into the extended support period. There had been a long-line of requests to add that suppor
