Concerned that we should not be pegging to a version of Ubuntu which will become stale. What are the implications of updating to a newer version of python? |
|
@kestewart, it's not about upgrading our Python version (we already support at least 3.11) but about whether we want to drop Python 3.7 support. Note that we wouldn't immediately lose compatibility when erasing it from the pipeline, but we wouldn't catch changes in our code that break for Python 3.7, so we couldn't guarantee 3.7 support anymore. |
|
I think we should drop support for python versions that are EOL |
|
@armintaenzertng, @maxhbr - no issue with dropping support - what I was objecting to was the pegging to an old version of ubuntu, rather than staying with the latest. If I've misunderstood what the patch is doing, please explain. |

good point, lets drop old versions and stay with latest ubuntu |
