PyDP users should be encouraged to upgrade their Python to 3.6+ before we stop publishing wheels for it after the next release is out for a smooth transition.
Additional Context
Many packages are dropping support for Python 3.5 on January 2021, including pipwhich makes this python version out of the common distribution pipelines.
