Personally, I don't have any dependencies on Python 3.5. I just suggested once year's notice to give people time to adjust, but if no one really cares, dropping 3.5 support some time this year is fine by me.
Maybe it would be OK to do one more release of Twisted and announce that as the last release supporting Python 3.5, before dropping support? -- Craig On Wed, May 13, 2020 at 10:37 PM Amber Brown <hawk...@atleastfornow.net> wrote: > Xenial's 3.5.1/3.5.2 sucks and doesn't have some asyncio functionality > (due to it being provisional then?) which means things like Eliot doesn't > work due to aiocontextvars barfing on missing functionality.
