Hi, everyone.

In no less than 30 days, we will be switching the default Python targets
from CPython 3.5 to 3.6.  The new values will be:

  PYTHON_TARGETS="python2_7 python3_6"
  PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET="python3_6"

If you haven't ported your package to Python 3.6, please look into doing
it now.  Helpful lists:

 packages missing python3.6 support:

 packages needing stabilization:

  g https://qa-reports.gentoo.org/output/gpyutils/35-to-36-stablereq.svg

At the same time, I'd like to remind you that Python 3.4 reaches end-of-
life in March 2019.  For more details, see [1].

I'll submit a news item for users for review today.  The switch will be
postponed to account for its publication.
