I don't think the policy is quite that strong; 2.7.10 has already been scheduled, and there's sufficient resistance to a Python 4.0 that there's likely to be a 3.10; although some people are saying that it might be worth following 3.9 with 4.0, drop only stuff that's been deprecated for a long time (on par with the disallowing of string exceptions during 2.x), and basically dodge the whole issue. But yes, there's a general feeling that two-digit version components cause trouble, and it's usually easy enough to avoid them. ChrisA
