Farewell, Python 3.4
-
It's with a note of sadness that I announce the final retirement of Python 3.4. The final release was back in March, but I didn't get around to actually closing and deleting the 3.4 branch until this morning.
Python 3.4 introduced many features we all enjoy in modern Python--the asyncio, ensurepip, and enum packages, just to name three. It's a release I hope we all remember fondly.
My eternal thanks to all the members of the release team that worked on Python 3.4:
Georg Brandl
Special thanks to Benjamin Peterson and Ned Deily, who frequently scurried around behind the scenes cleaning up the messes I cluelessly left in my wake.
Julien Palard
Martin von Löwis
Ned Deily
Steve Dower
Terry Reedy
and all the engineers of the Python infrastructure team.
Having closed 3.4, I am now retired as Python 3.4 Release Manager. I regret to inform all of you that you're still stuck with me as Python 3.5 Release Manager until sometime next year.
