Okay, well we'll keep it in SymPy 1.13 for now.

Okay great. We'll drop both Python 3.8 and 3.9 then after sympy 1.13 is released. You haven't mentioned 3.10. I infer from this that it currently seems problematic for Sage to drop support for 3.10 in a few months (and that it might be awkward if SymPy did so). -- Oscar -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
