The Python 3.5 branch has now entered "security fixes only" mode. No more bugfixes will be accepted into the 3.5 branch.
In keeping with our modern workflow, I have changed the permissions on the 3.5 branch on Github so that only release managers can accept PRs into the branch. Please add me to your 3.5 security fix PRs, as I'm the one responsible for accepting them. (This was already true for the 3.4 branch, too.)
I neglected to mention it in the release announcement, but this transition also means no more binary installers for 3.5 releases. This signals the end of my interactions with macOS Platform Expert Ned Deily and Windows Platform Expert Steve Dower when making releases. I just wanted to mention what a pleasure it has been working with those two gentlemen for the two Python releases I've RM'd for. They've made me look good every time.
Cheers,
