3.7 Lifespan
============
2019-06-05 19:37:33 -04:00
3.7 will receive `bugfix updates <https://devguide.python.org/devcycle/#maintenance-branches>`_
approximately every 3 months for about 24 months. Sometime after the release of
3.8.0 final, a final 3.7 bugfix update will be released.
After that, it is expected that
`security updates <https://devguide.python.org/devcycle/#security-branches>`_
(source only) will be released as needed until 5 years after
2016-12-23 02:01:42 -05:00
the release of 3.7 final, so until approximately 2023-06.
2023-06-27 22:43:25 -04:00
As of 2023-06-27, 3.7 has reached the
`end-of-life phase <https://devguide.python.org/devcycle/#end-of-life-branches>`_
of its release cycle. 3.7.17 was the final security release. The code base for
3.7 is now frozen and no further updates will be provided nor issues of any
kind will be accepted on the bug tracker.
