Adopt NEP 29 for Python version support #21

Open mmccarty opened 3 years ago

mmccarty commented 3 years ago

I propose legate adopts NEP 29, which suggests supporting Python 3.7+ until Dec 26, 2021 and then 3.8+. The RAPIDS project general follows this support model.

Any objections?

Works for me. I think Python 3.6 has already bit-rotted for us, which is why we currently say that 3.7 is the minimum version. I'm not sure we have any 3.9 tests in the CI though at the moment. I fixed a bug in one of the install scripts that 3.9 exercised a week or two ago.
