I think we should start by dropping Python2 support, hoping that the library is more readily available for Python3. For comparison, the policy of the Subversion project is to support Python2 for the remainder of 1.14 "unless an unreasonable burden". That policy mainly applies to using Subversion but I think there was some work also on the build system to support old platforms where Python3 might not be available. In our case, we have good support for Python3 on our build platform (we already require Visual Studio 2022 and Windows 10, so no-one should be building on old Windows versions where Python 3 isn't available) so it should not cause trouble for anyone. /Daniel -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TortoiseSVN-dev" group.
