<p>This document describes the development and release schedule for
|

|

Python 2.7.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Python 2.7 is the end of the Python 2.x series, and is succeeded by
|
|||
|
|
Python 3. See <a class="reference external" href="https://www.python.org/doc/sunset-python-2/">the “Sunsetting Python 2” FAQ on python.org</a> for a general
|

|
|
overview.</p>

|
|||
|
|
<p>The End Of Life date (EOL, sunset date) for Python 2.7 has been moved
|
|||
|
|
five years into the future, to 2020. This decision was made to
|
|||
|
|
clarify the status of Python 2.7 and relieve worries for those users
|
|||
|
|
who cannot yet migrate to Python 3. See also <a class="pep reference internal" href="../pep-0466/" title="PEP 466 – Network Security Enhancements for Python 2.7.x">PEP 466</a>.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>This declaration does not guarantee that bugfix releases will be made
|
|||
|
|
on a regular basis, but it should enable volunteers who want to
|
|||
|
|
contribute bugfixes for Python 2.7 and it should satisfy vendors who
|
|||
|
|
still have to support Python 2 for years to come.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>There will be no Python 2.8 (see <a class="pep reference internal" href="../pep-0404/" title="PEP 404 – Python 2.8 Un-release Schedule">PEP 404</a>).</p>
