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
Julien Palard
Martin von Löwis
Ned Deily
Steve Dower
Terry Reedy
and all the engineers of the Python infrastructure team.
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.
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.
My very best wishes,
/arry
