It is a security-fix source-only = release. Python 3.3.0 was released 5 years ago on 2012-09-29 and has = been in security-fix-only mode since 2014-03-08. Per project policy, = all support for the 3.3 series of releases ends on 2017-09-29, five = years after the initial release. Therefore, Python 3.3.7 is expected to = be the final release of any kind for the 3.3 series. After 2017-09-29, **we will no longer accept bug reports nor provide = fixes of any kind for Python 3.3.x**; of course, third-party = distributors of Python 3.3.x may choose to offer their own extended = support. Because 3.3.x has long been in security-fix mode, 3.3.7 may no = longer build correctly on all current operating system releases and some = tests may fail. If you are still using Python 3.3.x, we **strongly** = encourage you to upgrade to a more recent, fully supported version of = Python 3; see https://www.python.org/downloads/. If you are still using = your own build of Python 3.3.x , please report any critical issues with = 3.3.7rc1 to the Python bug tracker prior to 2017-09-18, the expected = release date for Python 3.3.7 final. Even better, use the time to = upgrade to Python 3.6.x! Thank you to everyone who has contributed to the success of Python 3.3.x = over the past years!
