Minimum supported Python version #59

Closed ielis closed 6 months ago

ielis commented 6 months ago

Hi @pnrobinson @justaddcoffee @msierk

Can we relax the minimum supported Python version from python >= 3.5 to python >= 3.8?

According to Status of Python versions 3.5 has been end-of-life for >3 years and 3.8 is the last version that receives patches.

Using 3.8 or better will help me simplify loading of Neoplasm_Core.csv table in cda_downloader here. The importlib_resources does not work for me from some reason and there is a package in stdlib Python since 3.7 that does the same thing.

+1 let's do this, 3.5 is old
