Comment (by Mariusz Felisiak):

 Replying to [comment:2 Claude Paroz]:
 > With my usual conservative hat on, I'd plead to not drop Python 3.7
 support too soon. It's still widely used in stable systems (namely Debian)
 and asking contributors running those systems to install a Python version
 "by hand" to contribute to Django master branch is not friendly at all.

 I understand your concerns, but  there's not consensus to change the
 policy on the mailing list. Also, if not in Django 4.0 then we will need
 to support Python 3.7 to Django 4.2 LTS (end of life April 2026), so 2
 more years, and almost 3 years after the last Python 3.7 release.
