2020-07-06 Thread Matthias Klose
Starting with Python 3.8, Python upstream changed to a time based yearly release schedule, targeting the first release of a major Python version (3.x) for October of each year. For the transition to 3.8: - we add 3.8 as supported in November - made 3.8 the default in March - dropped 3.7 in Apr
